You were right. I reproduced the same b4 error using an externally received copy: outbound delivery wrapped the diff header and removed whitespace. The copy in my Gmail Sent folder was intact, so my earlier check missed the corruption. Sorry for the trouble. I have resent the unchanged series as text/plain attachments: https://lore.kernel.org/r/CACGbirTvSoSeNSpMCBiifTdRKKDsKbgk7nfvh=09fhw2b0m...@mail.gmail.com I verified the externally received attachments through b4 and git am. They reproduce the prepared tree and retain the original authorship and your Acked-by on patch 2. I will use this Gmail address for follow-up, given the delivery problems with my previous address. Thanks, Tianyi
