This is painful, your patch arrives with this header:
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=y Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
When I try to apply it git am says:
$ git am --signoff geert1.patch fatal: cannot convert from y to UTF-8
Wut? I never heard of an encoding named "y", and SMTP is not my strongest subject anyway.
This UTF-8 business i becoming a subject for this years kernel summit as I see the same thing with a few fellow german and Swedish contributors appearing using our funny diacritics ÅÄÖÆØåäöøæ
Yeah well even ß at some time IIRC...
Yours, Linus Walleij
