It seems there is a misunderstanding :) When I say "comments after ---", by "comments" I mean whatever discussion that should not be recorded in git. What should be recorded in git (which includes the detailed changelog "* Makeconf: Remove references" etc.) should go before ---. I.e., when submitting a revised patch, either separate the discussion part and the patch itself in separate mails, or keep them in just one mail, but put the changelog of the patch before ---, and put the reply to the discussion after the --- (yes it looks odd to human eyes, but that's the way git am eats it).
