Subject: checkpatch: add ability to coalesce commit descriptions on multiple lines
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b671fde0572af42495ce3183969b0cafa98fd9ec;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

checkpatch: add ability to coalesce commit descriptions on multiple lines

If a git commit description is split on consecutive lines, coalesce it
before testing.

This allows:

  commit <foo> ("some long
  description")
