Am using 0.44, and ran into this tonight. If using 'quilt mail' and you
have a patch that has a "Signed-off-by" line that looks like:
Signed-off-by: Joe R. Hacker <address@hidden>
quilt will complain that the name "Joe R. Hacker" is not a proper email
name. That is true, as it isn't quoted, but that's not required in a
"Signed-off-by:" line (at least it isn't for Linux kernel patches.)
I edited the patches that had this problem by hand, and then edited the
resulting mbox file, but it would be nice to be fixed in the future...
Other than that, 0.44 is great from my standpoint, very nice job.
thanks,
