Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst:
The canonical patch message body contains the following:
(...)
- The body of the explanation, line wrapped at 75 columns, which will
be copied to the permanent changelog to describe this patch.
scripts/checkpatch.pl:
# Check for line lengths > 75 in commit log, warn once
if ($in_commit_log && !$commit_log_long_line &&
length($line) > 75 &&
(...)) {
WARN("COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE",
"Prefer a maximum 75 chars per line (possible unwrapped commit description?)\n" . $herecurr);
$commit_log_long_line = 1;
}
What am I missing?
