York, where's your signoff since you're the one submitting the patch?
I am sending many patches in this set. Since I didn't contribute to this patch, I didn't add my signed-off-by.
That's not what signed-off-by means. I realize (though never understood why) the U-Boot project differs from Linux rules in terms of whether custodians are expected to sign off patches when applying, but does that extend to submitting patches by e-mail as well?
I don't have the answer myself. I haven't added any of my signed-off-by for the patches I squashed/tested/sent. For small patch set, I would request the original author to send each patch. For large set with dependency, I send patch on behalf of the authors. I don't want to take credit for the patch I didn't contribute the change. I test all of them though.
If the signed-off-by has different meanings, I am OK to change my practice.
