I'm just piping the output for git-format-patch. Maybe the output of
that program should look less like a raw email, or perhaps use the local
person who is sending the patch as the From and add the author to the
body under a separate From. Your call, but I didn't "decide" to send the
patches this way.

Besides all that, I asked Matthew if I could send this patch upstream,
and I would be surprised if he was angry about the way I sent it.
