I consider this to be a bug in git - or at something you need to be aware of 
and avoid.

IMHO the subject of an email should not contain critical information. 
Obviously it is important to give emails meaningful subject lines, but the 
body of the email should not require the reader to refer back to the subject. 
On pretty much every email client I've ever used the subject and other header 
information is displayed separately to the body of the email.
