So, how about this?
         {
                 echo "X-Fake-Field: Line One"&&
                 echo "X-Fake-Field: Line Two"&&
                 echo "X-Fake-Field: Line Three"&&
                 git format-patch --stdout first | sed -e "1d"
         } | sed -e "s/$/;/" | tr "'";"'" "'"\015"'">  patch1-crlf.eml
Or maybe this?
         {
                 echo "X-Fake-Field: Line One"&&
                 echo "X-Fake-Field: Line Two"&&
                 echo "X-Fake-Field: Line Three"&&
                 git format-patch --stdout first | sed -e "1d"
         } | sed -e "s/$/;/" | tr ";" "\\015">  patch1-crlf.eml
