I am not sure if this part is tested..

Maybe you meant 'if test -n "$GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL"' here?

If you were to do bashism local, don't you want to also localize
other variables like key, SUBHEX, NEWSUB,...?

It may make sense to enhance format-patch to do the Q encoding,
so that you do not have to do this part by hand...

With GIT 1.3.0 and later:

	git diff --patch-with-stat $parent..$commit

would be simpler here.

lastmail=`git rev-parse --default "$MAILTAG" ${2+"$2"}`

I am not sure if earlier base=$(git-rev-parse $1) is needed if
you do this here...
