My question was to find out whether I can pass untrusted user input to
--in-reply-to and expect that no header beyond "In-Reply-To" and
"References" is modified, but your answer makes clear that I cannot.

A possible alternative might have been that git verifies that the input
to --in-reply-to matches the format specified RFC2822 (section 3.6.4.).

Thanks!
