Changes in v4:
- EDITME: describe what is new in this series revision.
- EDITME: use bulletpoints and terse descriptions.

Oh no. B4 probably even warned you about not sending it out.

  From this changelog I can assume that nothing has changed. Is it
correct?

This section was generated automatically by b4 and was not reviewed
carefully. The actual list of changes is in the section below.

But why????? Why do you ignore what was done for you and write it on
your own, reversing the order, etc? And even if you decided to ignore it
for any reason, why didn't you delete it?

The confusion was caused by mixing b4 and git format-patch to handle fine‑grained patch formatting. The Git configuration Konrad suggested did not work for me. I ran b4 prep --manual-reroll <msg-id> to allow b4 to track the upstream thread, which caused this section to be generated automatically. I did not notice this and mistakenly re‑wrote it myself.

I found that I have additional options set in my *local* gitconfig:

[diff]
renameLimit = 999999
rename = true

This one does not exist. You wanted "renames" but you set it two lines
below.

I tried this, but these config options cannot replace --find-copies-harder. Since hamoa-iot-evk.dts and hamoa-iot-som.dtsi are not modified in this commit, Git will not consider them unless --find-copies-harder is used.


thanks

Konrad
