Hi guys,

for whatever reason my git has started acting up with
stable@vger.kernel.org addresses. It doesn't manage to extract a valid
adress from the string:

 Cc: [off-list ref] # v3.4 v3.5 v3.6

Removing the comment at the end of the line makes things work again. I
do remember, however, seeing this working since few weeks back I sent a
mail to stable (in fact the same one I'm using to test), so this could
be related to some perl updates, who knows ?!?

You probably just installed Email::Valid package.

The current git-send-email works a little better and just prints an error:

W: unable to extract a valid address from: [off-list ref] #v3.4 v3.5 v3.6


This patch should fix the problem, now after <email> any garbage is
removed while extracting address.

worked like a charm. When you send as a proper patch, you can add my:

thanks
