Subject: git mailinfo with patch parser
Message-ID: <87imp77o5k.fsf@mid.deneb.enyo.de>

git mailinfo splits a message into headers, commit message, and patch
text, but does not actually parse the patch text.  As a result, the
patch portion produced by git mailinfo can contain something that
looks like a patch, but actually isn't.

Is there a way to get the patch data, as parsed by git apply or git
am, and dump it back in patch format, without actually applying the
patch to a working tree?
