strncpy might not NUL-terminate the string, if the name equals the buffer size.
Use strlcpy instead.

Looks like patchwork mishandles the pgp signature, the patchwork mbox has

> boundary=3D"Sig_/EN90ciRq4eWXDUcnZABQ0Ak"; protocol=3D"application/pgp-s=

as the only content-type (and the boundary is nowhere to be found),
while the one in my inbox has

0ciRq4eWXDUcnZABQ0Ak"; protocol=3D"application/pgp-signature"

When I remove the Content-Type: line(s) from the mbox from patchwork,
git recognises it again as a patch. I guess git am ignores everything
until the boundary, which got dropped by patchwork, so it never finds
the actual patch.

Going through the issues, I guess this is already fixed in master with
https://github.com/getpatchwork/patchwork/commit/e27ff061dc01e51967a978884a=
5c59152863ab9c
and queued for the next 2.1 release (or not? the stable/2.1 branch
also contains a version bump to 2.2 ... )
I have still no idea who runs the patchwork instance at
patchwork.kernel.org though.

Very nice, thanks so much for investigating this!

The admins are Linux Foundation's IT group and one can file a ticket via
[email protected] But IMHO there's no need to do that, this is the
first time I'm seeing the bug and it can easily wait until
patchwork.kernel.org is updated anyway. As long as the issue is fixed
upstream.

Not a silly question at all. I'm not sure what's the preferred way to
report bugs but at least I found this:
http://jk.ozlabs.org/projects/patchwork/
I guess they use the github tracker:

Awesome, thanks for debugging this! It would be great if someone could
report this to the patchwork maintainers, I don't have the time right
now.

Silly question, but who *are* the maintainers? I just spend several
minutes on https://patchwork.kernel.org/ and google, and failed to
find any contact information.
