rfc2822 section 2.1.1 specifies that "Each line of characters MUST be no more than 998 characters...excluding the CRLF." (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html)

commit-email.pl has no mechanism to check/enforce that; thus, a large checkin of many directories will create an email message that violates the rfc. I could not find an existing bug for this problem.
