Specifically the "b4 trailers" command, somehow. I don't have any special knowledge of b4, but it sounds as if a command that was expected to rewrite only the history of an under-review feature branch accidentally reached back too far and rewrote some of Kees' copy of master — without leaving a hint in the "Committer" field as it was conventionally supposed to. Linus (rightly-ish) objected to this confusing breach of convention and did the contributor equivalent of a "revert quickly, debug at leisure." Kees (rightly) dug into the puzzle, figured out the problem, and explained it to Linus's (or at least Konstantin's) satisfaction. https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/contributor/trailers.ht... |
