I haven't looked at what happens on Windows (CRLF usage?) for
multi-line descriptions. The common assumption is LF in repo, with
attributes etc, but the branch description is a bit free format in
terms of guidance ;-)

The same approach taken by the format-patch to use a commit-log
message to form the subject and the body should be applicable; as
long as the resulting cover letters are made the same way as the
normal patch e-mails, it is OK.  If both are broken wrt CRLF usage
or whatever, as long as they are broken in the same way, we can
correct both at the same time ;-)
