Yes, I did disable the 'auto-whitespace fix' option in git before
attempting to apply it.

The compressed one you sent applied correctly though - I am assuming
that a mailer messed it up along the way.

precaution.

I did not make the comment changes ('$ ') to dtinfo or (I think) dtksh
msg files at the time since they were non-functional, which is
