    The user's editor likely catches SIGINT (ctrl-C).  but if
    the user spawns a command from the editor and uses ctrl-C to
    kill that command, the SIGINT will likely also kill git
    itself (depending on the editor, this can leave the terminal
    in an unusable state).

Judging from S-o-b, message-id and EHLO, I think this was sent by Peff, but came without Sender: or anything.

Just being curious.
