b4 am doesn't see patch 2/2

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

Hi Konstantin,

While

     b4 mbox 20200420123844.3998746-2-arnd@arndb.de

fetches all files, "b4 am" only sees the first patch:

    $ b4 am 20200420123844.3998746-2-arnd@arndb.de

           git am ./20200420_arnd_sh_remove_sh5_support.mbx

It doesn't matter whether I pass the Message-Id of the first or second patch.

Thanks!

Ah, good one. That patch has nothing but file deletes, so in the absence 
of @@ @@ lines, we didn't recognize it as a patch.

Both master and stable-0.3.y have a fix for this now, and I will release 
0.3.8 in the near future.

Thanks,
