[PATCH v8 00/12] Add interpret-trailers builtin

2014-03-26 Thread Christian Couder
This patch series implements a new command: git interpret-trailers and an infrastructure to process trailers that can be reused, for example in "commit.c". 1) Rationale: This command should help with RFC 822 style headers, called "trailers", that are found at the end of commit messages.
