I understand that some people need to use attachment for
patches. In some locations I have that problem myself.

However, the From: in the body above isn't needed.
Or if it's needed, it should be part of the patch.

And the patch (attachment) also contains From:, but it's missing
a Signed-off-by: line.

Please read/study Documentation/SubmittingPatches, esp. the
section on "12) The canonical patch format".


Anyone: what are acceptable method(s) for using
attachments for patches?

Would no email body be OK? (I.e., everything in the attachment?)
Everything being "the canonical patch format."

Thanks,
