Perhaps, but I cannot tell exactly what you are doing wrong.

If you didn't touch lines you did not have to in a way to break
indentation and cause "indent with spaces", "am" would not have
complained (it only looks at "+" lines).

Attached is a patch based on your patch but removes the unnecessary
re-indentation part, and "git am" happily applies it to my tree
without complaining.  Does it apply for you (obviously to a revision
without your patch) cleanly without complaint?  Otherwise it could
be that whitespace categories that are specified for the file in
your local attributes file may be different from mine (i.e. an empty
set).

Subject: [PATCH] symbolic-ref: check format of given reference

Currently, it's possible to update HEAD with a nonsense reference since
no strict validation is performed. Example:

	$ git symbolic-ref HEAD 'refs/heads/master
    >
    >
    > '

Fix this by checking the given reference with check_refname_format().
