If we are at it, I had a similar bugreport: If one doesn't use an empty
line after the first line in the commit message, a git-format-patch +
git-am combo will strip newlines from the commit message:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/73755

There, you suggested to modify git-format-patch, but I haven't come up
with such a patch nor anybody else.

Actually I recently tried to make one but I got lost in pretty.c and
log-tree.c. :-)

What I would like to do is just to change the current:

----
line1
 line2
 line3
----

output to:

----
line1

line2
line3
