From: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> When we print an email signature, we print the divider "-- \n", then the signature string, then two newlines. Traditionally the signature is a one-liner (and the default is just the git version), so the extra newline makes sense. But one could easily specify a longer, multi-line signature, like: git format-patch --signature=' this is my long signature it has multiple lines ' ... We should notice that it already has its own trailing newline, and suppress one of ours.
