This line will still be too long in git log's output, as well as in git

The second change is to always write the line termination character 
(default: newline) even when using --inline or --attach. This is simply 
to improve the aesthetics of the resulting message. When using --inline 
an email client should render the resulting message identically to the 
non-inline version. And when using --attach this adds a blank line 
preceding the attachment in the email, which is visually attractive.

It appears that your patch has one uncontroversial and one controversial 
part, then.
