WARNING: Please discard previous patch!

Due to an error I sent the wrong one, the following is the correct one:

------------------- CUT ----------------------------------------------------


In case author email is <> then we have the following
bug in function 'format_person_part'

/* parse name */
for (end = 0; end < len && msg[end] != '<'; end++)
      ; /* do nothing */

start = end + 1; /* now start points to '>' */

-- cut ---

/* parse email */
for (end = start + 1; end < len && msg[end] != '>'; end++)

And here 'end' is initialized with 'start + 1'
instead of 'start'. This turns out in empty commit
date when git log is used with --pretty=format option.
