Yep.
I do not know why "git apply" sometimes complains. All is fine for me both
with "git apply" and "patch".
Last time it was because my mailer uses text/x-diff for the mime type, as
define by the system in "/etc/mime.types", which some mailer then
interpret as a license to change eol-style when saving, resulting in this
kind of behavior. Could you tell your mailer just to save the file as is?

Are you sure that you are using the compiled pgbench, not a previously
installed one?
bin/pgbench> pgbench -t 1 -f SQL/gset-1.sql SQL/gset-1.sql:1: invalid command in command "gset" \gset
bin/pgbench> ./pgbench -t 1 -f SQL/gset-1.sql starting vacuum...end. debug(script=0,command=2): int 1
debug(script=0,command=4):int 2 ...

The intention is to test that gset & gcset work as expected in various
settings, especially with combined queries (\;) the right result must be
extracted in the sequence.

Because a pgbench scripts stops on the first error, and I wanted to test
what happens with several kind of errors.
