ups. I tested with --verbosity=info but not with =debug, therefore I
missed it. Sorry for the noise.

I thought about patch files that already have 'To/Cc' headers (e.g.
'git format-patch --to=... --cc=...' or by running add-maintainer.py

patch file with possible duplicated lines; but as written: it does
matter, effectively.
