The suite must at least check that subject contains the string 'lic_files_chksum' or 'license' or 'checksum' in case the value of LIC_FILES_CHKSUM would change on behalf of the corresponding patch.
By "subject" you mean "commit message" here.
(In reply to comment #1) > By "subject" you mean "commit message" here. patchtest at the end is using mboxes (which contain code changes in the payload), so in patchtest context is indeed a subject.
The subject is the shortlog from the commit message, not the entire commit message. LIC_FILES_CHKSUM would typically be mentioned in the commit message but not the shortlog - hence in email terms it would not actually appear in the subject, just the message body.

I was a misunderstood from my part. Thanks for clarifying this.
