Hello,
This is my first attempt at submitting a patch, so keep that in mind
in case I messed up somewhere.
Awesome! :)
I already did the copyright assignment dance and it was accepted &
sent to me the 2016-09-07, do I need to send the confirmation to
someone in order to post here?
When I sent my first patch, I asked the person who helped commit that to look up my name in the list of people who have assigned their copyright.
Just to be sure, I should send emails to emacs-devel as plain text
right? no html?
The patches should be sent as bug reports. That way, the patch and the reasoning behind it stays together in a clean bug thread. Also the commit to master can then refer to that (Bug#NNNNN). So, no guesswork is involved if someone wants to understand why a particular commit was made.
Anyway, back to the subject: this patch removes the variable ..
Do you want to take this discussion to a bug thread? Simply email the exact same thing to
bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org.
