413 | Patch format | ||
414 | ============ | ||
415 | |||
416 | By default, patches created with ``git format-patch`` have a `Git` version signature at the end. | ||
417 | To avoid having a `Git` signature at the end of generated or updated patches, | ||
418 | you can use `Git` configuration settings:: | ||
419 | |||
420 | git config --global format.signature "" | ||
421 | |||
422 | .. note:: | ||
423 | Patches generated or updated by ``devtool`` are created with no signature. | ||
