Hi, everybody! When I generate patches using "git format-patch" it always makes my name garbled in the "From:" line as shown below. I'm using openSUSE 11.2 RC 1 (x86_64) with the following settings: # locale charmap UTF-8 # echo $LANG en_US.UTF-8 I've tried changing my environment to use another encoding like ISO-8859-1, but it didn't work as well. Does someone can explain why does this happens? Any suggestions? P.s.: the problem never occurs on the commit message (Signed-off-by) >> >From 584d9bfc7c1d41b76a05655b4562b98fcbef6ee4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 >> From: =?UTF-8?q?Andr=C3=A9=20Goddard=20Rosa?= <andre.goddard@xxxxxxxxx> >> Date: Sun, 1 Nov 2009 14:09:06 -0200 >> Subject: [PATCH v2 7/7] vsprintf: factor out skip_space code in a >> separate function >> MIME-Version: 1.0 >> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 >> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit > > btw., for reviewability's sake, could you please fix your patch > submission method to not include such garbled headers in the mail body? > > (Also, it would be nice to reply-thread the 7 patches on the 0/7 mail, > as git-send-email does.)
