A Git formatted patch looks like this:

=====================================================================

foo: some short description

Here is some longer description that explains what I'm doing, it spans
multiple lines.

And even multiple paragraphs.

This is the v2 of the patch, which compared to v1 has such and such
changes.

=====================================================================

When Git will apply this patch, it will discard everything that is
after the "---" line. So:

 * We need the SoB line to be before the "---" sign, because we want
   the SoB line to be preserved in the commit log.

 * We want all informations that should be kept in the Git history
   before the "---" line.

 * We want all informations that should *NOT* be kept in the Git
   history *after* the "---" line.

Best regards,

Thomas
