My point is that Cc and other similar (non-real-tags) stuff is
polluting commit messages. It means that this will be copied to the
Git index to all kernel git repositories in the world from now and
then, This is at bare minimum makes additional burden on git log (and
parsing and so on) and moreover, wastes resources becoming less
environment friendly (no jokes). Using --cc or moving to the behind
the commit message will keep email copied with cleaner commit
messages. Yet, all email tags are available in lore archive
(lore.kernel.org). Please, really reconsider the commit messages
content in the Linux kernel project and elsewhere, it will help to
make the world more friendly.
