Re: git-am: "Patch fragment without a header"

Unfortunately git-mailinfo is in C, otherwise I'd have suggested using
the Perl MIME-tools, which seems to have all this stuff in it.

Heh, spawn Perl for every message?  I'd be ****ed by Linus if I
did so ;-).

This should fix it and I'd appreciate if you try it on other
messages.

I tried it on the message you quoted with:

    git-mailinfo -u /var/tmp/msg /var/tmp/patch <./+hpa.eml >/var/tmp/info

The resulting 'msg' and 'info' looks reasonable utf8 and patch
was not corrupt.

[PATCH] mailinfo: reset CTE after each multipart

If the first part uses quoted-printable to protect iso8859-1
name in the commit log, and the second part was plain ascii text
patchfile without even Content-Transfer-Encoding subheader, we
incorrectly tried to decode the patch as quoted printable.
