-Subject: [PATCH] Add IPC support through a unix socket
-
-This patch currently supports the following requests:
-* Run custom commands with arguments (similar to key bind functions)
-* Get monitor properties
-* Get all available layouts
-* Get available tags
-* Get client properties
-* Subscribe to tag change, client focus change, and layout change,
-  monitor focus change, focused title change, and client state change
-  events
-
-This patch includes a dwm-msg cli program that supports all of the
-above requests for easy integration into shell scripts.
-
-The messages are sent in a JSON format to promote integration to
-increase scriptability in languages like Python/JavaScript.
-
-The patch requires YAJL for JSON parsing and a system with epoll
-support. Portability is planned to be increased in the future.
-
-This patch is best applied after all other patches to avoid merge
-conflicts.
-
-For more info on the IPC implementation and how to send/receive
-messages, documentation can be found at
-https://github.com/mihirlad55/dwm-ipc

+From a11b738714b35eab3847211f019b47b7290595c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: mihirlad55 <mihirlad55@gmail.com>
+Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2020 15:32:39 +0000
+Subject: [PATCH] Add IPC support through a unix socket
+
+This patch currently supports the following requests:
+* Run custom commands with arguments (similar to key bind functions)
+* Get monitor properties
+* Get all available layouts
+* Get available tags
+* Get client properties
+* Subscribe to tag change, client focus change, and layout change,
+  monitor focus change, focused title change, and client state change
+  events
+
+This patch includes a dwm-msg cli program that supports all of the
+above requests for easy integration into shell scripts.
+
+The messages are sent in a JSON format to promote integration to
+increase scriptability in languages like Python/JavaScript.
+
+The patch requires YAJL for JSON parsing and a system with epoll
+support. Portability is planned to be increased in the future.
+
+This patch is best applied after all other patches to avoid merge
+conflicts.
+
+For more info on the IPC implementation and how to send/receive
+messages, documentation can be found at
+https://github.com/mihirlad55/dwm-ipc
