I have been using git imap-send to upload the patch from gmail's draft folder so that I could send manually after looking over everything, but all the text piped into git imap-send has unix line endings. I am not sure if gmail is changing the line endings on me, or if git imap-send is changing line endings when I upload the patch. Either way Julliard must have managed to deal with this since the last patches that I sent were sent in the same way.
I'd be very surprised if git is modifying your patches without telling you. It's probably Gmail trying to be clever. Telling git-imap-send to send as an attachment (--attach) might fix the issue. Or, if you're already doing that, maybe turning it off would fix it ;)
git-apply can be configured to automatically fix whitespace errors, which is probably what Julliard is using.
