Ah, I meant "git-mailsplit", which is the command internally run by "git-am" to preprocess the file and to split it into individual mail pieces to be fed to "git-mailinfo". That may suggest the change is better done in git-mailsplit not git-mailinfo. Or perhaps both. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
