Yes.

git also expects the kernel style e-mails, and it is _NOT_ "dump output
from 'git show' in the message, commit/Author:/Date: headers and message
indented by 4-spaces" format.

As to the contents, I did not understand this part.

+Notes on interpretation:
+
+'╬' (or variants thereof, like ╪) is meant to be a "path bridge", i.e.
+traversal is only "allowed" horizontal OR vertical direction.
+
+Branching:
+C D E F G
+╠═╬═╩═╩═╝  A->{C,E,F,G} and B->D.
+A B

So the horizontal line bridge goes over the vertical road between B and D
and these two will not get connection to anything else.  That part I
understand.

 (1) Why then is that horizontal bridge connected to E, F and G?  Do
     pluses and inverted Ts have different meaning?  What about the
     sideway T between A and C?

 (2) If you want to express D is merge between A and B, and C, E, F, G are
     independent children of A, how would you write it?

Did you mean "Connection with three legs (T, inverted T, sideways T) mean
all sides are connected, connection with four legs (+) mean horizontal and
vertical are independent and disconnected"?
