Setting up git send-email to work with gmail OAUTH2 is quite complex. You might want to take a look at Eli's solution for that: https://billauer.co.il/blog/2022/10/git-send-email-with-oauth2-gmail/ The patch you sent is indeed whitespace damaged. Your email client ate the spaces: https://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2025-February/091272.html So this patch doesn't apply as is. Fortunately, the patch is small enough so I guess the maintainer can just apply it manually. Alternatively, you can send the patch you generate with 'git format-patch' as attachment.
