Currently patman assumes that there should be only one Signoff line
and this is obviously incorrect: we often have to work with patches
containing other people signoffs. Moreover, it's really desirable
to preserve the comments between signoffs.
So until some sophisticated signoff processing will be developed I
suggest just don't mess with signoffs at all and treat them like
plain text lines. The only drawback I've found so far is the case
where you have a patch with someones else signoff but not yours and
also have to patman tags under signoff line. In this case you will
get extra empty line between signoffs.

We already got all changes from git log output and the comment
to the ProcessLine function clearly states that 'patch' mode
is not for scanning tags.

Changes may end in '---' line or Signoff line (generated by
git format-patch) in case of Series-changes: lines being
the last ones in commit message. So detect it properly.

What is this?
=============
This tool is a Python script which:
- Creates patch directly from your branch
- Cleans them up by removing unwanted tags
- Inserts a cover letter with change lists
- Runs the patches through checkpatch.pl and its own checks
- Optionally emails them out to selected people
It is intended to automate patch creation and make it a less
error-prone process. It is useful for U-Boot and Linux work so far,
since it uses the checkpatch.pl script.
It is configured almost entirely by tags it finds in your commits.
This means that you can work on a number of different branches at
once, and keep the settings with each branch rather than having to
git format-patch, git send-email, etc. with the correct parameters
each time. So for example if you put:
in one of your commits, the series will be sent there.
See the README file for full details.
