I cannot reproduce that here. Do you have anything active that could cause git-format's patch to garble that subject line (or rather why does it try to put the newline =0A in the subject itself?) > Notice that the lines deleted were dep-3, because I hand edited it > to be dep-3.

If you use update-patches you have to put the dep-3 headers in the commit message, so they end up in the generated patches. > dep-3 patch headers are highly recommended but not required by debian. > http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/ Note that this explicitely allows the Author in From: and the having a Subject: for parts of the description.
