Konstantin, would you be willing to mod the kernel.org instance of
patchwork to populate Fixes tags in the generated mboxes?

I'd really rather not -- we try not to diverge from project upstream if at all
possible, as this dramatically complicates upgrades.

Well that is really unfortunate then because the Linux developer
community settled on using the Fixes: tag for years now and having
patchwork automatically append those tags would greatly help maintainers.

I agree -- but this is something that needs to be implemented upstream.
Picking up a one-off patch just for patchwork.kernel.org is not the right way
to go about this.

You should be able to tune this from the patchwork administrative
interface and add new tags there, would not that be acceptable?

Oh, oops, I got confused by the mention of a rejected upstream patch -- I
didn't realize that this is already possible with a configuration setting.

Sure, I added a match for ^Fixes: -- let me know if it's not doing the right
thing.
