Hi folks, Marc does have a point, which I think is quite valid. A lot of people do reviews of code in the email they're sent, where - at least for the commits, it's inlined - and pursuant to discussions about this elsewhere, that doesn't seem likely to be changing any time soon. If diffs were attachments with the text/x-patch or text/x-diff mime-type, it'd be up to peoples MUA and possibly their .mailcap as to how it should be opened, but that's not something that's doable with the current setup. So I do think wrapping to 72 columns is the better option here, if we want to retain the broadest review possibilities.
