Hi, I'm not sure it is a bug, but we used:
git config --global format.headers "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"utf-8\""
and recently (perhaps an Ubuntu default setup issue) the content-type is being automatically set, the result is that patches contain this:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
This might not be the problem, but when I apply the patch I get this:
fatal: cannot convert from UTF-8utf-8 to UTF-8
which looks like a bug. Not sure it hasn't been reported before, but I think it should take one of the content-type specifications and not append both. I couldn't find a place to looks for previous bug reports to check, so forgive me if this is not the right place to report it.
