Subject: format-patch: do not abuse 3-dash marker line.
X-Git-Tag: v0.99.9l^2~24^2~1
X-Git-Url: https://git.verplant.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a004d3f70f1c074f2d9bd55e7a925ff5916ebbeb;p=git.git

format-patch: do not abuse 3-dash marker line.

Before GIT version at the end of output we used a 3-dash marker;
but 3-dash marker is special and should not be overused.
Instead, use "-- " which is a standard practice in e-mails to
signal the beginning of trailing garbage.
