Well, this is the one I would like (hoped) that we could do something
about. When I do '--notes' in git-format-patch, I will always see:

```
(Typical git commit)
...

---
(I just wanted "Notes:" to be removed and my notes to start at the
beginning of the line).
Notes: 
	(my notes go here)
...

AFAICT, git-format-patch looks to be using --pretty=email and I think
we can use --pretty in git-format-patch but having to mimic the email
format "by hand" is just painful and I was hoping a better way could
exist.

I'm aware of this and by briefly looking into the source code this
seemed the only way to actually remove those predefined strings from
notes (I was just hoping I was wrong).
