What version are you running?
1.6.9, as hosted on https://reviews.apache.org/dashboard/

What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
Every review request where you upload a git formatted patch

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. git commit -a 0m "commit message"
2. git format-patch -o patches HEAD~1
3. New Review request -> Upload the 0001-my-awesome-fix.patch
4. View diff or Download diff has only the diff (unified format), and contains no commit message or author info.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would love to see the diff as it shows now, but when downloading I should get the original patch submitted by a contributor.

What operating system are you using? What browser?
Does n't matter.

Please provide any additional information below.

git am contains all the necessary information to apply a patch. Perhaps the raw patch download should be enabled.
