Next time please make sure you fetch back from what upstream has its 'seen' and start your work from that state. In addition, perhaps you should fix your editor settings to avoid files with such an incomplete line at the end. There may be other incomplete lines in this seris. And a possible #leftoverbits is probably to teach the whitespace error checking code to optionally flag a new incomplete line as an error (this is obviously way outside the topic of this series). Thanks.
