I don't remember the particular mail of his that you refer to. But I
suspect he recommended to /look/ at the history, not exactly to /blindly
grep/ through the history and Cc all addresses that got caught.

If the thread starter had looked at the history of fs/eventpoll.c, he
wouldn't have Cc'd me. A 5 seconds glance at gitk fs/eventpoll.c would
have sufficed.
