 --in-reply-to=<identifier>

Pick the identifier from the Message-ID tag of the e-mail you are
replying to. E.g., save the e-mail as hauke.mbox file and do:

$ grep -i '^Message-ID:' hauke.mbox
Message-Id: <1359045599-1305-2-git-send-email-hauke at hauke-m.de>

which means that for this one the 'git send-email' option will be:

--in-reply-to="<1359045599-1305-2-git-send-email-hauke at hauke-m.de>"

Signed-off-by is not about how big were your changes, it roughly
speaking means that you confirm that the source of this patch for you is
Hauke Mehrtens.

See Documentation/SubmittingPatches

The Signed-off-by: tag indicates that the signer was involved in the
development of the patch, or that he/she was in the patch's delivery
path.

I googled a bit and found also this:

http://kerneltrap.org/files/Jeremy/DCO.txt

which gives additional clue about what can be behind SOB.
