Hello
I stumbled over a problem with git handling patches. Perhaps i am then only developer who hast this problem because im am the only developer writing commit-mesages in german.
Consider this log-Message: commit ea2cd63dfe9b3ac3581b6cff8b13a52e69066242 Author: martin <martin@chad.upnx.de> Date: Fri Nov 19 18:58:58 2010 +0100
Methoden überall angepasst.
Ausser AussnahmenUsing format-patch the result is:
From ea2cd63dfe9b3ac3581b6cff8b13a52e69066242 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: martin <martin@chad.upnx.de> Date: Fri, 19 Nov 2010 18:58:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?Methoden=20=C3=BCberall=20angepasst. =20Ausser=20Aussnahmen?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
The content of the subject field ist split up in two lines . The blank in the second line indicates an header-folding according to RFC2822 . After this the string is encoded according to RFC2047 because it contains non-ascii chars. The blank indicatinc the folding ist encoded too, with =20. That is a Problem because the unfolding according to RFC2822 cant't detect the folding anymore. RFC2822 suggests that the unfolding must be done before any further processing of the header which applies to the RFC2047 decoding.
Applying this patch leads to this commit-Message:
commit 3949e57e4773e85e6c55482b68ade7c409426b3c Author: martin <martin@chad.upnx.de> Date: Fri Nov 19 18:58:58 2010 +0100

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bitThe solution is to make an exception not to encode blanks indicating a folding.
