Subject: git am and the wrong chunk of ---
Date: Thu, 09 Aug 2012 17:13:51 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5024523F.3050208@zytor.com> (raw)
Hello,
I have some contributors who consistently put their commentary *before*
the "---" line rather than *after* it, presumably with the notion that
it is some kind of "cover text". This messes with "git am", and so I
end up having to edit those posts manually.
I have tried git am --scissors and it doesn't seem to solve the problem.
Is there any other option which can be used to automatically process
such a patch?
