Most people seem to want some form of commit message
and not just your sign-off.

And btw:

It seems you used get_maintainer to determine who to
send these patches to.

I suggest you add --nogit and --nogit-fallback to the
get_maintainer command line you use to avoid sending
these patches to people like me that have done drive-by
cleanup work on these files.
