@maxc You referring the (to be fair, dumb) thing where a lot of e-mail clients default to HTML rather than plain text, and that garbles a git patch? Yeah, it's a weird hill to die on, but at the same time, I understand the frustration of e-mail clients not having a plain text option =P

@Charadon yep that's the one. Including gmail. It's certainly frustrating but also, it's the world we live in, and pretending it's not is also frustrating

@maxc Ah... gmail. The frustrating thing about them, is that even if you use an e-mail client that HAS plain text, it'll still reformat it to HTML when sending. But yeah, one thing I do find weird, is how git, as far as I know, can't just use e-mail attachments. It wouldn't be *that* hard to include the diff as an attachment rather than the body of the e-mail itself.
