Here's our issue:

  https://github.com/git/git/commit/e66d7c37a5f

The regex we used to detect these mails was case sensitive. I can
submit a patch to simply make this case insensitive, which should
resolve this issue. However, I also noticed that the file, as
downloaded by my email client (Evolution), has CRLF line endings.

   $ file ~/Downloads/net_pull.txt 
  /home/sfinucan/Downloads/net_pull.txt: ASCII text, with CRLF, CR line terminators

I can't see how this would happen with 'git-request-pull', so can I
safely assume it's my email client messing up here?

Cheers,
Stephen
