Subject: Re: [PATCH v7 00/13] Add support for dracut
Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2025 17:36:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f764dbe7-c419-4e64-835f-a3d67f3b2c98@ilbers.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251105121350.114449-1-Quirin.Gylstorff@siemens.com>

Applied to next, thanks.

There was an extra space in front of tab in lighttpd.conf from patch v7 
12/13,
caused warning when applying the patch. I have fixed it and replaced 
tabs with
spaces.

Best regards,
Zhihang
