Linus flamed me for that a few weeks ago. The problem is that if one
uses "git format-patch" to prepare a series of emails to post, that it
users the patch's author for the From: entry. I think that is a bug
in git since multiple people have encountered this issue. It's not
like git doesn't know what one's email address is....
