Re: [PATCH] Fixes issue when debugging debug builds of Perf.

Hi Arnaldo,

Thanks for that, yes separating them looks better.
I will try to break down commits in the future.

By mangled do you mean the quoted printables "=3D" and "=20"?

It seems like git send-email falls back to this behavior by default:

         
     --transfer-encoding=(7bit|8bit|quoted-printable|base64|auto)

       Specify the transfer encoding to be used to send the message over SMTP.
       7bit will fail upon encountering a non-ASCII message. quoted-printable can be
       useful when the repository contains files that contain carriage returns, but
       makes the raw patch email file (as saved from a MUA) much harder to inspect
       manually. base64 is even more fool proof, but also even more opaque. auto will
       use 8bit when possible, and quoted-printable otherwise.


I copied my raw patch and was able to successfully apply it with git am, even with this escaping. Although I
did upgrade to a newer version of git (2.23.0).

If I view the patch that you created, then it doesn't have quoted printable escaping. So there does
seem to be a difference somewhere.
Do you think I should use "git send-email --transfer-encoding=7bit"?


Thanks
James
