Lintian tag: quilt-patch-missing-description

Type: information

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

quilt patch files should start with a description of patch. All lines
before the start of the patch itself are considered part of the
description. You can edit the description with quilt header -e when the
patch is at the top of the stack.

As well as a description of the purpose and function of the patch, the
description should ideally contain author information, a URL for the bug
report (if any), Debian or upstream bugs fixed by it, upstream status, the
Debian version and date the patch was first included, and any other
information that would be useful if someone were investigating the patch
and underlying problem. Please consider using the DEP 3 format for this
information.

Please refer to https://dep-team.pages.debian.net/deps/dep3/ for details.
