Commit 2cc8d353d7ecb broke manually written patch descriptions of the
form:
> Frobnozzle: this is a patch subject
>
> From: Fred McNurk <fred@xxxxxxxxxx>
>
> This is the patch description
Commit 8f88f953580a0 partially fixed things by filtering out the From:
field, but it did not filter out the empty line (if present) after the
From: field, so it resulted in commit bodies which looked like this:
> Frobnozzle: this is a patch subject
>
>
> This is the patch description
instead of
> Frobnozzle: this is a patch subject
>
> This is the patch description
The ext4 patch queue has used this format for years, and this change
should not break other patches which look like mail headers and
bodies.
