From 739453a3fb74ade725243ac972f02ba1aedabdf6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2011 20:32:28 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] format-patch: use branch description in cover letter Use the description for the branch when preparing the cover letter when available. While at it, mark a loosely written codepath that would do a random and useless thing given an unusual input (e.g. "^master HEAD HEAD^"), which we may want to fix someday.
