Just to be clear: this doesn't solve my problem because it relies on _everyone else_ to change in a way that's much more complicated for them. As Mark said, the person that needs to reference the "Link:" tag (me / others replying here) is not the same as the person who needs to add the "Link:" tag (maintainer). It was hard enough to convince maintainers to make a tiny change to their workflow to add the "Link:" tag in the first place. Convincing maintainers to add a complicated git hook that only adds the link tag if it happens that the commit "git patch-id" they're going to push doesn't match anything on the mailing list? Yeah, no. Given the number of people who have continued to reply to this thread after the commit-hook suggestion you provided, I'm going to assume that others agree that the git commit-hook is not a good solution to the problem we're all trying to solve. -Doug
