The thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/257392
details problems when applying patches with "git am" in a repository with
CRLF line endings. In the example in the thread, the repository originated
from "git-svn" so it is not possible to use core.eol and friends on it.
Right now, the best option is to use "git am --keep-cr". However, when
a patch create new files, the patch application process will reject the
new file because it finds a "/dev/null\r" string instead of "/dev/null".
The problem is that SMTP transport is CRLF-unsafe. Sending a patch by
email is the same as passing it through "dos2unix | unix2dos". The newly
introduced CRLFs are normally transparent because git-am strips them. The
keepcr=true setting preserves them, but it is mostly working by chance
and it would be very problematic to have a "git am" workflow in a
repository with mixed LF and CRLF line endings.
The MIME solution to this is the quoted-printable transfer enconding.
This is not something that we want to enable by default, since it makes
received emails horrible to look at. However, it is a very good match
for projects that store CRLF line endings in the repository.
The only disadvantage of quoted-printable is that quoted-printable
patches fail to apply if the maintainer uses "git am --keep-cr". This
is because the decoded patch will have two carriage returns at the end
of the line. Therefore, add support for base64 transfer encoding too,
which makes received emails downright impossible to look at outside
a MUA, but really just works.
The patch covers all bases, including users that still live in the late
80s, by also providing a 7bit content transfer encoding that refuses
to send emails with non-ASCII character in them. And finally, "8bit"
will add a Content-Transfer-Encoding header but otherwise do nothing.

After the next patch, git-send-email will sometimes modify
existing Content-Transfer-Encoding headers. Delay the addition
of the header to @xh until just before sending. Do the same
for MIME-Version, to avoid adding it twice.

Ralf reported that '--recurse-submodules' option in push.c should not be

Small fixes to a new experimental command already in 'master'.
* cc/interpret-trailers:
trailer: display a trailer without its trailing newline
trailer: ignore comment lines inside the trailers
* 'master' of git://github.com/git-l10n/git-po:
l10n: de.po: translate 62 new messages
l10n: de.po: Fixup one translation
l10n: de.po: use imperative form for command options
Translate 62 new messages came from git.pot update in 16742b0
(l10n: git.pot: proposed updates for v2.2.0 (+62)).

run_merge_tool() was not setting $status, which prevented the
exit code for builtin tools from being forwarded to the caller.
Capture the exit status and add a test to guarantee the behavior.

The test misused a URL "file://." to mean "relative to here",
which we no longer accept.
In a file:// URL, typically there is no host, and RFC1738 says that
file:///<path> should be used.
Update t5705 to use a working URL.

In an earlier part there is:
"re-send it with "To:" set to the maintainer [*1*] and "cc:" the list [*2*]"
for the final submission, but later we see
"Send it to the list and cc the maintainer."
Fix the later one to match the previous.

Initialize the struct child_process variable cp at declaration time.
This is shorter, saves a function call and prevents using the variable

Trailers passed to the parse_trailer() function often have
a trailing newline. When erroring out, we should display
the invalid trailer properly, that means without any
trailing newline.

Otherwise trailers that are commented out might be
processed. We would also error out if the comment line
char is also a separator.
This means that comments inside a trailer block will
disappear, but that was already the case anyway.

Two tests recently added to t1410 create branches "a" and
"a/b" to test d/f conflicts on reflogs. Earlier, unrelated
tests in that script create the path "A/B" in the working
tree. There's no conflict on a case-sensitive filesystem,
but on a case-insensitive one, "git log" will complain that
"a/b" is both a revision and a working tree path.
We could fix this by using a "--" to disambiguate, but we
are probably better off using names that are less confusing
to make it more clear that they are unrelated to the working
tree files. This patch turns "a/b" into "one/two".
