The reason it doesn't apply is because something is butchering the whitespace. Whatever it is, it thinks it knows better than you do, and is converting the tabs in the patch to a series of space characters. Your email also appears to be using quoted-printable encoding. It looks like you're using git-send-email - and that should be fine. It also looks like you're sending through a MS Exchange server... My suspicion would be that the MS Exchange server is re-encoding to quoted-printable and is butchering the white space, but that's just a guess. I've no idea what you can do about that.
Oh. That. I would assume you're right, given that we use git-send-email. And that our mail provider is indeed an MS service (smtp.office365.com).
We'll try to figure a way to correctly send the mail tomorrow. Sorry for the noise, and thanks to everybody for your continuous help. Best regards, -- Emmanuel Deloget
