As example, in the rev d5a63b99835017d2638e55a7e34a35a3c1e80f1f from git
the original subject is:

'   Alternate object pool mechanism updates.'

while, after the round-trip git-format-patch + git applymbox I have

'   [PATCH] Alternate object pool mechanism updates.'

The extra '[PATCH]' in the subject was introduced by git-format-patch --mbox.


Perpahs I have made something wrong.


Marco
