Hm. Yes, so if I send that patch to myself with git-send-email, I see the same thing as you:

But the mail I got through the git list yesterday has some odd stuff in it:

>From git-owner@vger.kernel.org Mon May 14 11:22:01 2007

Received: from vger.kernel.org ([209.132.176.167])
	by fieldses.org with esmtp (Exim 4.67)
	(envelope-from <git-owner@vger.kernel.org>)
	id 1HncN6-00051C-Mh
	for bfields@fieldses.org; Mon, 14 May 2007 11:22:01 -0400
Received: (majordomo@vger.kernel.org) by vger.kernel.org via listexpand
	id S1755729AbXENPVe (ORCPT <rfc822;bfields@fieldses.org>);
	Mon, 14 May 2007 11:21:34 -0400
X-Warning: Original message contained 8-bit characters, however during
	   the SMTP transport session the receiving system did not announce
	   capability of receiving 8-bit SMTP (RFC 1651-1653), and as this
	   message does not have MIME headers (RFC 2045-2049) to enable
	   encoding change, we had very little choice.
X-Warning: We ASSUME it is less harmful to add the MIME headers, and
	   convert the text to Quoted-Printable, than not to do so,
	   and to strip the message to 7-bits.. (RFC 1428 Appendix A)
X-Warning: We don't know what character set the user used, thus we had to
	   write these MIME-headers with our local system default value.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: QUOTED-PRINTABLE
