Indeed these have been reported before - see the full thread at [1]

To summarize: there is no problem with the U-Boot repository, but a
false positive in git; the git folks are working on it, and it will
problebly be fixed in later versions of git.  There is no need for any
action on our side.

Best regards,

:       I've tried (in vi) "g/[a-z]\n[a-z]/s//_/"...but that doesn't
: cut it.  Any ideas?  (I take it that it may be a two-pass sort of solution).
In the first pass, install perl. :-) Larry Wall <6849 at jpl-devvax.JPL.NASA.GOV>
