Aside from that, it makes it much easier to review patches (and thus more likely for them to be reviewed in a timely manner) if they are sent directly as self-contained emails using "git send-email" rather than sending the output of "git diff" as an attachment to an email message. Also, post new versions of a patch using the -v2 (-v3, etc) option to git send-email so that they will show up with, e.g. "[PATCH v2]" in the subject. See the libvirt contributors' guidelines here: https://libvirt.org/hacking.html (ignore the short bit about using "diff -urp" or "git diff" - that is ancient cruft that should have been removed long ago. Instead, you should commit your changes to a local branch, then use git send-email to send the patch.) Finally, the commit log message should be a short paragraph about what is implemented; your original patch message included a large treatise on the subject, and the "v2" patch contained no header at all. Take a look at "git log" to get a feel for what is appropriate.
