We used to have two versions of the email parsing code. Our
parse_mailboxes (in Git.pm), and Mail::Address which we used if
installed. Unfortunately, both versions have different sets of bugs, and
changing the behavior of git depending on whether Mail::Address is
installed was a bad idea.
A first attempt to solve this was cc90750 (send-email: don't use
Mail::Address, even if available, 2017-08-23), but it turns out our
parse_mailboxes is too buggy for some uses. For example the lack of
nested comments support breaks get_maintainer.pl in the Linux kernel
tree:
https://public-inbox.org/git/20171116154814.23785-1-alex.bennee@linaro.org/
This patch goes the other way: use Mail::Address anyway, but have a
local copy from CPAN as a fallback, when the system one is not
available.
The duplicated script is small (276 lines of code) and stable in time.
Maintaining the local copy should not be an issue, and will certainly be
less burden than maintaining our own parse_mailboxes.
Another option would be to consider Mail::Address as a hard dependency,
but it's easy enough to save the trouble of extra-dependency to the end
user or packager.

Using Mail::Address made sense when we didn't have a proper parser. We
now have a reasonable address parser, and using Mail::Address
_if available_ causes much more trouble than it gives benefits:
* Developers typically test one version, not both.
* Users may not be aware that installing Mail::Address will change the
behavior. They may complain about the behavior in one case without
knowing that Mail::Address is involved.
* Having this optional Mail::Address makes it tempting to anwser "please
install Mail::Address" to users instead of fixing our own code. We've
reached the stage where bugs in our parser should be fixed, not worked
around.

This is a followup over 9d33439 (send-email: only allow one address
per body tag, 2017-02-20). The first iteration did allow writting
Cc: <foo@example.com> # garbage
but did so by matching the regex ([^>]*>?), i.e. stop after the first
instance of '>'. However, it did not properly deal with
Cc: foo@example.com # garbage
Fix this using a new function strip_garbage_one_address, which does
essentially what the old ([^>]*>?) was doing, but dealing with more
corner-cases. Since we've allowed
Cc: "Foo # Bar" <foobar@example.com>
in previous versions, it makes sense to continue allowing it (but we
still remove any garbage after it). OTOH, when an address is given
without quoting, we just take the first word and ignore everything
after.

"git send-email" learned to overcome some SMTP server limitation
that does not allow many pieces of e-mails to be sent over a single
session.
* xz/send-email-batch-size:
send-email: --batch-size to work around some SMTP server limit
Some email servers (e.g. smtp.163.com) limit the number emails to be
sent per session (connection) and this will lead to a faliure when
sending many messages.
Teach send-email to disconnect after sending a number of messages
(configurable via the --batch-size=<num> option), wait for a few
seconds (configurable via the --relogin-delay=<seconds> option) and
reconnect, to work around such a limit.
Also add two configuration variables to give these options the default.
Note:
We will use this as a band-aid for now, but in the longer term, we
should look at and react to the SMTP error code from the server;
Xianqiang reports that 450 and 451 are returned by problematic
servers.

Adding comments after a tag in the body is a common practise (e.g. in
the Linux kernel) and git-send-email has been supporting this for years
by removing any trailing cruft after the address.
After some recent changes, any trailing comment is now instead appended
to the recipient name (with some random white space inserted) resulting
in undesirable noise in the headers, for example:
CC: "# 3 . 3 . x : 1b9508f : sched : Rate-limit newidle" <stable@vger.kernel.org>
Revert to the earlier behaviour of discarding anything after the (first)
address in a tag while parsing the body.
Note that multiple addresses after are still allowed after a command
line switch (and in a CC header field).
Also note that --suppress-cc=self was never honoured when using multiple
addresses in a tag.

"git send-email" now uses a more readable timestamps when

send-email: more meaningful Message-ID
Diligent people save output from format-patch to files, proofread
and edit them and then finally send the result out. If the
resulting files are sent out with "git send-email 0*", this ends up
sending backup files (e.g. 0001-X.patch.backup or 0001-X.patch~)
left by their editors next to the final version. Sending them with
"git send-email 0*.patch" (if format-patch was run with the standard
suffix) would avoid such an embarrassment, but not everybody is
careful.
After collecting files to be sent (and sorting them if read from a
directory), notice when the file being sent out has the same name as
the previous file, plus some suffix (e.g. 0001-X.patch was sent, and
we are looking at 0001-X.patch.backup or 0001-X.patch~), and the
suffix begins with a non-alnum (e.g. ".backup" or "~") and ask if
the user really wants to send it out. Once the user skips sending
such a "backup" file, remember the suffix and stop asking the same
question (e.g. after skipping 0001-X.patch~, skip 0002-Y.patch~
without asking).

Using a YYYYmmddHHMMSS date representation is more meaningful to
humans, especially when used for lookups on NNTP servers or linking
to archive sites via Message-ID (e.g. mid.gmane.org or
mid.mail-archive.com). This timestamp format more easily gives a
reader of the URL itself a rough date of a linked message compared
to having them calculate the seconds since the Unix epoch.
Furthermore, having the MUA name in the Message-ID seems to be a
rare oddity I haven't noticed outside of git-send-email. We
already have an optional X-Mailer header field to advertise for
us, so extending the Message-ID by 15 characters can make for

The regex for parsing mailrc considers everything after the
second whitespace to be the email address, up to the end of
the line. We have to include whitespace there, because you
may have multiple space-separated addresses, each with their
own internal quoting.
But if there is trailing whitespace, we include that, too.
This confuses quotewords() when we try to split the
individual addresses, and we end up storing "undef" in our
alias list. Later parts of the code then access that,
generating perl warnings.
Let's tweak our regex to throw away any trailing whitespace
on each line.
