Yes, my main point really was that I personally would find it super-nice to just mark particular branches in my kernel.org repositories as "send notifications for these", and author (and anyone else in "-by:" lines) would automatically receive nice notification once commit appears there. Without any need of wrapping simple git-am + git push with more and more bloated scripting. Thanks, -- Jiri Kosina SUSE Labs
