The patchwork flavor at freedesktop.org expects patches are sent using
git send-email [1]. I hear otherwise there were too many false
positives.

Please either use git send-email, or add

X-Mailer: git-send-email haha only kidding

header into your patch mails.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience and lack of transparency on
this. Apparently git send-email is so ubiquitous nowadays that this
hasn't been much of a problem.


BR,
Jani.
