Ccing Linus Walleij, who added this, and Kees, who apparently came up
with this originally.

Side note: that regexp should match "Message-ID" case-insensitively.
git send-email is an outlier in its capitalization of "Message-Id",
most RFCs capitalize it "Message-ID", as do common MUAs.

Argh :-/

It's still totally unclear if that or a similar patch will be accepted.
And even if it is: the "don't do two different things in one commit"
rule might not be that strict enforced when it comes to the Linux
kernel's docs, but changing this regexp as part of another patch crosses
the line.

IOW: we afaics need a separate patch to make the regexp
case-insensitively. Eric, do you want to submit one, as you brought it
up? Or are there any other volunteers?

I suggest you turn this into a 2 patch series to avoid conflicts
for a trivial change.  I don't even have a kernel worktree handy
at the moment (ENOSPC :x)

:-D

Will do this in a couple of days, unless Linus or Kees speak up.

Just to be sure I'll do what you expect to be done: I assume you want to see
it changed like this?

Or are there even more variants of Message-ID out there known that
need to be taken into account?

Ciao, Thorsten
