[PATCH] commit: More generous accepting of RFC-2822 footer lines.

From: David Brown <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:47:37
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

From: David Brown <redacted>

'git commit -s' will insert a blank line before the Signed-off-by
line at the end of the message, unless this last line is a
Signed-off-by line itself.  Common use has other trailing lines
at the ends of commit text, in the style of RFC2822 headers.

Be more generous in considering lines to be part of this footer.
This may occasionally leave out the blank line for cases where
the commit text happens to start with a word ending in a colon,
but this results in less fixups than the extra blank lines with
Acked-by, or other custom footers.
