From af5260ee785b8418c7319a84b1d1a0d26e770ed0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2005 15:23:50 -0700
Subject: [PATCH] git-format-patch fixes.

Introduces --keep-subjects flag to tell it not to munge the
first line of the commit message.  Running "git applymbox" on
the output from "git format-patch -m -k" would preserve the
original commit information better this way.

At the same time, prefix Subject: on the first line of the
commit, to help people cut&copy.
