Re: git bug: rebase fatal failure

Hi,

It is a .info file, so I suspect strange things going on with

And indeed, this is the culprit:

^@^H[index^@^H]

-- snap --

Note the NUL characters?

Now, the thing is: git format-patch still outputs it correctly.  But 
git-rebase pipes the output to git-am, which in turn calls git-mailsplit, 
which suppresses that line.
