The above line causes "git am" to be unable to parse the message
downloaded as an mbox, if I remember correctly.

I hope it's not just to appease me.  If the rationale behind a comment I
make isn't clear, always feel free to ask.

In this case, it is about readability.  It's perhaps irrational, but I
find text much more readable and the intent to be clearer when
paragraphs are wrapped to a consistent width instead of lines breaking
at arbitrary points.

Perhaps a nice way to make this a non-issue in the future would be an
option to "git am" to rewrap.
