Note that the correct way to put commentary in the patch mail that does not go into the commit message is putting it after the --- marker. Also, we write commit messages in the imperative. The above should probably look roughly like Subject: Documentation/gitweb: trivial English fixes Change "it's" to "its" where a possessive is intended. Also add two missing "the" that were noticed by Ben Walton [off-list ref]. Signed-off-by: David Waitzman [off-list ref] --- This is a trivial patch to correct the english in the man page. Ben Walton suggested an additional english fix which I have added and squashed with my change. And then I added it again when he pointed out I missed something in his original email.

If there's no Subject pseudoheader, the patch gets the subject of your email, and similarly for From and author.
Thanks. I'll use this with the patch text you are responding to.
