Have you tried:

  git send-email --ignore-all-space origin

There are two ways of running send-email:

  1. format-patch your patches into a file or directory, and then
     send-email on it. In this case, you need to --ignore-all-space when
     doing the format-patch, which is what is generating the patches.

  2. give send-email revision arguments, which are fed to format-patch
     (which is what I showed above).  In this case, you can give
     format-patch arguments directly to send-email.

Does that help?
