I forgot to mention the rationale for this patch vs. what Junio sent. The issue with Junio's patch is that the failure will occur before $tmp_patch is created because the script tries to feed git-mailinfo a non-existent patch ($patch_name). You'll only get past the mailinfo if $patch_name exists.

The marker setting may still be useful in this context, though, to suppress the "doesn't exist" message.
