Commit Message

Junio C Hamano April 23, 2024, 5:52 p.m. UTC
With the "--rfc" option, we can tweak the "[PATCH]" (or whatever
string specified with the "--subject-prefix" option, instead of
"PATCH") that we prefix the title of the commit with into "[RFC
PATCH]", but some projects may want "[rfc PATCH]".  Adding a new
option, e.g., "--rfc-lowercase", to support such need every time
somebody wants to use different strings would lead to insanity of
accumulating unbounded number of such options.

Allow an optional value specified for the option, so that users can
use "--rfc=rfc" (think of "--rfc" without value as a short-hand for
"--rfc=RFC") if they wanted to.

This can of course be (ab)used to make the prefix "[WIP PATCH]" by
passing "--rfc=WIP".  Passing an empty string, i.e., "--rfc=", is
the same as "--no-rfc" to override an option given earlier on the
same command line.
