Problem facing while running checkpatch.pl on linux-next tree

Hi All,

I am trying to run checkpatch.pl on linux-next tree's staging folder.
But whatever sub directory, I try to run it on. It is giving me the
same error for all the files :

ERROR: Does not appear to be a unified-diff format patch

I thought that it might be a problem with my git. So I clone the git tree again.

So can anyone help me, what am I missing ?

Regards
Rahul
