Use %B to format the commit message and body to avoid an extra newline
if a commit only has a subject line.

Is this an unconditional improvement, or is it generally an
improvement but for some users it may be a regression?  I am
guessing it is the former but am just making sure.

The former.

Please don't do "Author: " which does not add anything new.  That is
what "From: " is for.  Instead it needs to be a sign-off.

Ok.  Unfortunately I sent a number of patches like that.  Do you want me
to re-send them?

Also, is that a real name, I have to wonder?

No idea.  Not likely, I'd say.
