Hi Achra,

The commit message of the patch is empty. The text that is above, which describes what
your patch does, should be placed in your git commit, such that it will appear in the
patch file when you use "git format-patch".

This is the text that people will see when they do "git log", so you can do "git log"
to see how it's usually formatted.

Thanks,

Simon
