-k::

Usually the program 'cleans up' the Subject: header line
|
||||
to extract the title line for the commit log message,
|
||||
among which (1) remove 'Re:' or 're:', (2) leading
|
||||
whitespaces, (3) '[' up to ']', typically '[PATCH]', and
|
||||
then prepends "[PATCH] ". This flag forbids this
|

munging, and is most useful when used to read back

'git format-patch -k' output.

* Leading bracketed strings (between `[` and `]`, usually

`[PATCH]`).

Finally, runs of whitespace are normalized to a single ASCII space

character.
