The commit message is a bit lacking...what config are we interested in?

core.sparsecheckout, but I will probably stay away from config.

Right, I kind of guessed that from reading the rest of the series. But
that sort of "why" really should go into the commit message.

I blame gmail MTA or my name's having non-ascii chars in it. Combining
those two, it produces base64-encoded messages, which are usually
refused by vger.

There was "why" in the commit before but I wanted to make the first
two patches independent to this series. Turns out bad, I think :)

Curiously enough, in the first mail there -are- non-asci characters in
your name, in the 'empty' mail there are non, instead the 'letter
decorations' were removed.

Here's what's going on.

1. Gmail will often send messages as base64 encoded, inline. i.e.:

   Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
   Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
   Content-Disposition: inline

2. Majordomo is dumb dumb dumb and adds the standard list footer to
the message. It should probably either not add the footer to such
messages, or it should do it correctly by base64 decoding them, adding
the footer, then re-encoding. Anyway, what it sends out is:

   [... prior base64 encoded lines elided ...]

   --
   To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in
   the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org
   More majordomo info at  http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

3. Gmail is dumb dumb dumb and cannot decode such "corrupted"
messages. They display as completely blank. If you go to gmane you can
see the message is fine. (I think gmane strips the majordomo added
footer.)

I've filed a bug against gmail multiple times about this. No idea if
they'll ever fix it.

I also sent an email to git-owner@vger.kernel.org (which I think was
/dev/null'ed) offering to patch Majordomo, but got no reply.

I wonder if such a mailing list footer is useful in the first place.
Perhaps it could just be disabled.

Anyway, my offer to "fix" majordomo still stands. Perhaps someone
knows who I should contact at vger.kernel.org to find out whether
they're willing to accept a patch.
