To make this more similar to git format-patch, I added a 'From' and

I dislike the anyway completely bogus From line. If you want mbox
format, you should call (hypothetical) tg mail. Also, IMHO Date: should
be simply always printed at the end of the header, it's distracting if
it is higher.

Also, the writing to file is confusing to me. What are you trying to
achieve? If you want to export patches, why not use 'tg export' which
already has this functionality? To me, 'tg patch' is basically
equivalent of 'git show' for the whole branch.
