Why is this line in the body of the email?  It should be the subject of
the email itself.  Using 'git send-email' should do all of that for you
automatically.

We need a space after your name and before the '<' character.

All tabs were turned into spaces by your email client, making this patch
impossible to apply.  Also it was line-wrapped :(

You can not cut-paste a patch into an email, please use 'git send-email'
to send a patch out properly.
