 Ok, I see.  I (re)used the 'git format-patch' command from previous
 run, and this time it was (without the line-breaks):

    git format-patch  --stat  --patch-with-raw -1 --signoff -M -C
       --summary --full-index --subject-prefix="PATCH"
       --output-directory ../diff_lib_c_symcache_cleanup_v1/

  Regarding the '--summary' I think it is a nice thing to do (so I try
  to always use it), and the '--full-index' is such that the git software
  have a less chance of producing a collision.
