I believe all the mails I send with mutt are QP-encoded, and they
don't look funny, do they? (You'd see the separator just above my
signature as "--=20" if that was the case; it has a trailing
whitespace.)

Are you sure? Wouldn't it be better to teach StGIT to eat QP-encoded
mails, and use 7bit encoding when the patch is all ascii? (And still
have an option to force 8bit instead of QP if desired, of course.)

I'm really not comfortable with assuming all mail servers are 8-bit
clean, when they're evidently not. :-)
