When you put out multiple versions of a patch, it's always good to say
what has changed; you can put that information right after the "---" line
above. That's even more true if you send two versions within minutes of
each other; recipients will want to know what is going on.

Thanks,

Alright, I will make sure to always mention the changes between the subsequent version of patches.

Here, the reason for a v3 patch is to fix the typing error in the commit message, there was a duplicate line in commit message of patch v2.
