Hello
I stumbled over a problem with git handling patches.
Perhaps i am then only developer who hast this problem because im am the
only developer writing commit-mesages in german.
Consider this log-Message:
commit ea2cd63dfe9b3ac3581b6cff8b13a52e69066242
Author: martin <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri Nov 19 18:58:58 2010 +0100
Methoden überall angepasst.
Ausser Aussnahmen
Using format-patch the result is:

Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?Methoden=20=C3=BCberall=20angepasst.
=20Ausser=20Aussnahmen?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
The content of the subject field ist split up in two lines .
The blank in the second line indicates an header-folding according to
RFC2822 .
After this the string is encoded according to RFC2047 because it
contains non-ascii chars. The blank indicatinc the folding ist encoded
too, with =20.
That is a Problem because the unfolding according to RFC2822 cant't
detect the folding anymore. RFC2822 suggests that the unfolding must be
done before any further processing of the header which applies to the
RFC2047 decoding.
Applying this patch leads to this commit-Message:
commit 3949e57e4773e85e6c55482b68ade7c409426b3c

The solution is to make an exception not to encode blanks indicating a
folding.
I wrote this patch:

Then git generates this patch:
