Re: [PATCH] Remove unused variable `command-debug-status'

[Philippe Vaucher]

I already did the copyright assignment dance and it was accepted &
sent to me the 2016-09-07, do I need to send the confirmation to
someone in order to post here?

When I sent my first patch, I asked the person who helped commit that to look up my name in the list of people who have assigned their copyright. 

Well, I had to do copyright assignements for ztree, but that was on github (https://github.com/fourier/ztree/pull/33). Maybe @fourier will recognize himself and warrant me then :-) (I'm Silex).

 

The patches should be sent as bug reports. That way, the patch and the reasoning behind it stays together in a clean bug thread. Also the commit to master can then refer to that (Bug#NNNNN). So, no guesswork is involved if someone wants to understand why a particular commit was made. 

Oh, I did that in the past but I thought that was meant for general bug reporting. Do messages sent to address@hidden also end on emacs-devel? For information, messages like https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2016-09/msg00635.html don't seem to follow this "patches as bug reports" philosophy.

Anyway, I found on https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/email-clients.txt that GMail's UI is not good to send inline patches, so I'll send them to address@hidden as attachment instead (that or setup another client).

Thanks!
