I've made a copy of the repository at

  http://tmp.barzilay.org/testing.git.tgz

which shows what I said when I run

  git rev-list --pretty="%b" 267d60518
  git rev-list --pretty="%b" 84482

The problem is that most of those commits don't _have_ bodies.
Remember that "%b" is about everything in the commit message after
the first first paragraph.

*Ugh*...  Yes, I've seen that a lot, yet somehow I managed to
completely miss it.  Sorry about the noise.

Now one might argue that rev-list should still put in the extra
newline separator in this case. I haven't been paying attention, but
hasn't that been discussed in another thread recently?

(That might have made it more confusing, but I should still have
guessed what's wrong...)
