This patch makes two small changes to improve the output of --inline and --attach.
The first is to write a newline preceding the boundary. This is needed because
MIME defines the encapsulation boundary as including the preceding CRLF (or in
this case, just LF), so we should be writing one. Without this, the last newline
in the pre-diff content is consumed instead.
The second change is to always write the line termination character (default: newline)
even when using --inline or --attach. This is simply to improve the aesthetics of
the resulting message. When using --inline an email client should render the
resulting message identically to the non-inline version. And when using --attach
this adds a blank line preceding the attachment in the email, which is visually
attractive.

Hmm. I am surprised we haven't had more bug reports about this, but
perhaps these features aren't used too frequently. But I double checked
the MIME specs just to be sure, and you are definitely right.

Can you please wrap your commit messages at some more reasonable length?
This line is 86 characters long.

This patch makes two small changes to improve the output of --inline
and --attach.
The first is to write a newline preceding the boundary. This is needed because
MIME defines the encapsulation boundary as including the preceding CRLF (or in
this case, just LF), so we should be writing one. Without this, the last
newline in the pre-diff content is consumed instead.
The second change is to always write the line termination character
(default: newline) even when using --inline or --attach. This is simply to
improve the aesthetics of the resulting message. When using --inline an email
client should render the resulting message identically to the non-inline
version. And when using --attach this adds a blank line preceding the
attachment in the email, which is visually attractive.

This line will still be too long in git log's output, as well as in git
shortlog's output. I thought we had a suggestion to use at most 76
characters per line in SubmittingPatches, but apparently we don't.

It appears that your patch has one uncontroversial and one controversial
part, then.

Good point. I'll send another re-wrapped patch.

Is this controversial? Nobody's objected so far. My goal with this
change is to make the --inline output render exactly the same as the
default output in a mail client. I can't think of any downside.

No. I didn't comment on it in my earlier response because I don't really
care. But I certainly have no problem with it, and it is probably an
improvement.
