So that could probably be ripped out, too, with no ill effect.
And here is a patch (on top of the earlier one) to do that.
Alright, so I'm spinning a new version of this series, and I'm
wondering a bit how to include patches like these, where there's no
commit message (because it was a sketch or something, I guess) or
sign-off. Should I send the commit-messages to the author and have the
him/her sign off on them, or should I set me as author and credit the
real author for the actual work in the commit message? I see the
latter have been done quite a bit in git.git already. The benefit of
the first one is of course that authorship is retained, but the
backside is that it incorrectly looks like the author wrote the commit
message.

Are there any preferences?
