By the way, talking about mailing list etiquette: in scenarios like this
it makes sense to add a Helped-by trailer. That would've serviced as
hint to Junio that I was already involved, and it gives credit to that
other contributor. I myself don't care much about the latter part
anymore, but newer contributors might.
Got it. I'll add that trailer. My original intention was to directly
write a "Originally-from" instead of "Helped-by", because I didn't add
anything new at all ;-)
And no, I don't mind at all that you "stole" my wording. Quite on the
contrary, I'm happy you picked up my thoughts and cared enough to put
them into a nice patch series :)

Thanks!

Patrick
I should be thanking you :-) I´d like to start by contributing through
these more basic tasks and gradually become involved in the community,
since my code patches would probably only create noise and meaningless
trouble on the mailing list at this point ;-)

Thanks!
