It doesn't hurt. 'git am' prefers the From: in the message body over the From: from the message headers, if the two differ, because that is the only way some people have to get git to record their commits correctly due to the list having to rewrite their headers to avoid the mail being rejected from over-strict SPF settings. In your case, the two lines look identical (the list didn't rewrite your header From: to work around SPF); but it may be due to your 'git config format.from' settings. > If someone's going to pick up this patch please edit the commit > message.
