Tiny side note (since I'm starting to look at this pile soon): it
would be nice if your subject line had the very short "this is what
it's about" thing to it too.
I don't mind the numbering at all, but it would be good if the subject
was something like
[git pull] vfs.git pile 6: DRM compat ioctl handling
and then I'd have the summary for my initial explanation line:
Pull DRM compat ioctl handling updates from Al Viro:
"... full explanation goes here ..."
because as it is, I often end up in MakeShitUp(tm) mode.
Anyway, your current pull requests are fine too, and not really a problem.
I'd just thought I'd mention this small convenience when I get the
summary there. And I just like seeing it in my subject list, because
that is the overview of what I have pending when I do my usual mailbox
search criteria for "git pull".
