Well, however, there is no reason to include this in the mail body (and thus
the GIT commit message).
As you said, these are mail _headers_.
Additionally, attaching the patch as mail attachment is _not_ required. We just
put the patch into the body.

You may read Documentation/SubmittingPatches and format your future
patches according to that.
