Hello Julia, I have observed in some scenarios where the semantic patch
deletes the comments that exist between the declaration and
initialization which I think it's not okay and in this scenario where
the comments are left dangling such as this. How do I go about this
instances.
Thank you.

Making the right choice depends on the semantics of the comment, which is
out of the scope of Coccinelle.  Generally, if a complete block of code is
dropped, any comments within it are dropped as well.  Here the comment is
kept, which seems reasonable.  The issue is that you may have moved code
that is relevant to the comment up above the comment.  Ultimately, you have
to decide what to do and what not to do.  If you let Coccinelle make a
patch, and then apply the patch, in the meantime you can just remove the
parts of the patch you don't like.  If you make the changes in place, you
can use git add -p to add the changes you like, and not add the others, and
then use git checkout to remove the changes you don't want to do.  I would
take the former approach, but some people may take the latter.

I feel like it works.  I wish there were a blank line after the
declaration but that's something for a different patch.  Both of
these are okay with me.  Try to be more creative with the subjects
next time.  (Just put the file name in the subject because that's
the only difference).
