Subject: git-format-patch --in-reply-to: accept <message@id> with angle brackets
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.3.2~23
X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8419d2ee9ba8b375186a5c1019df8dfbce610aba;p=git.git

git-format-patch --in-reply-to: accept <message@id> with angle brackets

This will allow RFC-literate users to say:

	format-patch --in-reply-to='<message.id@site.name>'

without forcing them to strip the surrounding angle brackets
like this:

	format-patch --in-reply-to='message.id@site.name'

We accept both forms, and the latter gets necessary < and >
around it as before.
