Change git-am to ignore whitespace (as defined by sh's read) at the beginning of patches.
Empty lines are wont to creep in at the beginning of patches, here's an example from a raw Gmail attachment:
20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 | |
20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 0a | .|
52 65 74 75 72 6e 2d 50 61 74 68 3a 20 3c 61 76 |Return-Path: <av|Whitespace is also likely to appear if the user copy/pastes the patch around, e.g. via a pastebin, or any any number of other cases. This harms nothing and makes git-am's detection more fault tolerant.
