Re: [PATCH v2] Net Driver: Add Cypress GX3 VID=04b4 PID=3610.

[Chris Roth]

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong:

I'm trying to get the from statement to read original author (Allan
Chou) first, and then me (Chris Roth) second. I've used the following
two commands:

git format-patch -o /tmp/ --subject-prefix="PATCH v2" --from="Allan
Chou <allan@xxxxxxxxxxx>" HEAD^

and

git send-email --to linux-usb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --to
netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --to linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --from="Allan
Chou <allan@xxxxxxxxxxx>"
/tmp/0001-Net-Driver-Add-Cypress-GX3-VID-04b4-PID-3610.patch

I thought that adding the --from portions to the git format-patch and
git send-email commands would force the addition of Allan to the top
of the patch, but it hasn't. Can anyone tell me specifically how I
need to change these commands in order to get the desired result? Then
I'll submit a PATCH v3.

Regards,
Chris
