So this seems like a good change, but I need to make a couple of
requests:

- Please include a changelog, even with relatively simple patches like
this.

- Patches should be sent as plain text, inline in the mail - not as
attachments and *certainly* not as HTML. Have a look at
Documentation/process/email-clients.rst if you need some guidance on
configuring your email setup.

Thanks,
