665d3e8f05 Display warning for default git push with no push.default config
If a git push without any refspecs is attempted, display a warning.
The current default behavior is to push all matching refspecs, which
may come as a surprise to new users, so the warning shows how
push.default can be configured and what the possible values are.

Traditionalists who wish to keep the current behaviour are also told
how to configure this once and never see the warning again.

521537476f New config push.default to decide default behavior for push
When "git push" is not told what refspecs to push, it pushes all matching
branches to the current remote.  For some workflows this default is not
useful, and surprises new users.  Some have even found that this default
behaviour is too easy to trigger by accident with unwanted consequences.

Introduce a new configuration variable "push.default" that decides what
action git push should take if no refspecs are given or implied by the
command line arguments or the current remote configuration.

Possible values are:

  'nothing'  : Push nothing;
  'matching' : Current default behaviour, push all branches that already
               exist in the current remote;
  'tracking' : Push the current branch to whatever it is tracking;
  'current'  : Push the current branch to a branch of the same name,
               i.e. HEAD.

c1f2aa45b7 send-email: add --confirm option and configuration setting
send-email violates the principle of least surprise by automatically
cc'ing additional recipients without confirming this with the user.

This patch teaches send-email a --confirm option. It takes the
following values:

 --confirm=always   always confirm before sending
 --confirm=never    never confirm before sending
 --confirm=cc       confirm before sending when send-email has
                    automatically added addresses from the patch to
                    the Cc list
 --confirm=compose  confirm before sending the first message when
                    using --compose. (Needed to maintain backwards
                    compatibility with existing behavior.)
 --confirm=auto     'cc' + 'compose'

If sendemail.confirm is unconfigured, the option defaults to 'compose'
if any suppress-Cc related options have been used, otherwise it defaults
to 'auto'.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to introduce this patch such that it
helps new users without potentially annoying some existing users. We
attempt to mitigate the latter by:

 * Allowing the user to set 'git config sendemail.confirm never'
 * Allowing the user to say 'all' after the first prompt to not be
   prompted on remaining emails during the same invocation.
 * Telling the user about the 'sendemail.confirm' setting if it is
   unconfigured whenever we prompt due to Cc before sending.
 * Only prompting if no --suppress related options have been passed, as
   using such an option is likely to indicate an experienced send-email
   user.

There is a slight fib in message informing the user of the
sendemail.confirm setting and this is intentional. Setting 'auto'
differs from leaving sendemail.confirm unset in two ways: 1) 'auto'
obviously squelches the informational message; 2) 'auto' prompts when
the Cc list has been expanded even in the presence of a --suppress
related option, where leaving sendemail.confirm unset does not. This is
intentional to keep the message simple, and to avoid adding another
sendemail.confirm value ('auto-except-suppress'?).

7dff9b30ea Support 'raw' date format
Talking about --date, one thing I wanted for the 1234567890 date was to
get things in the raw format. Sure, you get them with --pretty=raw, but it
felt a bit sad that you couldn't just ask for the date in raw format.

So here's a throw-away patch (meaning: I won't be re-sending it, because I
really don't think it's a big deal) to add "--date=raw". It just prints
out the internal raw git format - seconds since epoch plus timezone (put
another way: 'date +"%s %z"' format)

c64d84f145 imap.preformattedHTML to tell Thunderbird to send non-flowed text
Many e-mail based development communities require non-flowed text to carry
patches to prevent whitespaces from getting mangled, but there is no easy
way to tell Thunderbird MUA not to use format=flowed, unless you configure
it to do so unconditionally for all outgoing mails.

A workaround for users who use git-imap-send is to wrap the patch in "pre"
element in the draft folder as an HTML message, and tell Thunderbird to
send "text only".  Thunderbird turns such a message into a non-flowed
plain text when sending it out, which is what we want for patch e-mails.
