In http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/109790 I
threatened to announce a change to the default threading style used by
send-email to no-chain-reply-to (i.e. the second and subsequent messages
will all be replies to the first one), unless nobody objected, in 1.6.3.
Nobody objected, as far as I can dig the list archive. But when nothing
happened in 1.6.3 nor 1.6.4, nobody from the camp who complained loudly
that led to the message did not complain either.
So I am guessing that after all nobody cares about this. But 1.7.0 is a

it is a good change, so here it is.

For another patch series I'm working on I needed some tests
for the cc-cmd feature of git-send-email.
This patch adds 3 tests for the feature and for the possibility
to specify --suppress-cc multiple times, and fixes two bugs.
The first bug is that the --suppress-cc option for `cccmd' was
misspelled as `ccmd' in the code. The second bug, which is
actually found only with my other series, is that the argument
to the cccmd is never quoted, so the cccmd would fail with
patch file names containing a space.
A third bug I fix (in the docs) is that the bodycc argument was
actually spelled ccbody in the documentation and bash completion.

After commit 3e0c4ff (send-email: respect in-reply-to regardless of
threading, 2009-03-01) the variable $thread was only used for prompting
for an "In-Reply-To", but not for controlling whether the "In-Reply-To"
and "References" fields should be written into the email.
Thus these fields were always used beginning with the second mail and it
was not possible to produce non-threaded mails anymore.
However, a later commit 15da108 ("send-email: 'References:' should only
reference what is sent", 2009-04-13) introduced a regression with the
side effect to make non-threaded mails possible again, but only when
--no-chain-reply-to was used.

According to rfc2047, an encoded word has the following form:
encoded-word = "=?" charset "?" encoding "?" encoded-text "?="
charset = token
encoding = token
token = <Any CHAR except SPACE, CTLs, and especials>
especials = "(" / ")" / "<" / ">" / "@" / "," / ";" / ":" / "
<"> / "/" / "[" / "]" / "?" / "." / "="
encoded-text = <Any printable ASCII character other than "?"
or SPACE>
And rfc822 defines CHARs and CTLs as:
CHAR = <any ASCII character> ; ( 0-177, 0.-127.)
CTL = <any ASCII control ; ( 0- 37, 0.- 31.)
character and DEL> ; ( 177, 127.)
The original code only detected rfc2047 encoded strings when the charset
was UTF-8. This patch generalizes the matching expression and breaks the
check for an rfc2047 encoded string into its own function. There's no real
functional change, since any properly rfc2047 encoded string would have
fallen through the remaining 'if' statements and been returned unchanged.

The sender address, as specified with the '--from' command line option,
couldn't be set in the config file. So add a new config option,
'sendemail.from', which sets it. One can use 'sendemail.<identity>.from'
as well of course, which is likely the more useful case.
The sender address would default to GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT, which is usually the
right thing, but this doesn't allow switching based on the identity
selected. It's possible to switch the SMTP server and envelope sender by
using the '--identity' option, in which case one probably wants to use a
different from address as well, but this had to be manually specified.
The documentation for 'from' is also corrected somewhat. If '--from' is
specified (or the new sendemail.from option is used) then the user isn't
prompted. The default with no '--from' option (or sendemail.from option)
is GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT first then GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT, not just
GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT.

Several places in send-email prompt for input, and will do so forever
when the input is EOF. This is poor behavior when send-email is run
unattended (say from cron).
This patch refactors the prompting to an ask() function which takes a
prompt, an optional default, and an optional regex to validate the
input. The function returns on EOF, or if a default is provided and the
user simply types return, or if the input passes the validating regex
(which accepts all input by default). The ask() function gives up after
10 tries in case of invalid input.
There are four callers of the function:
1) "Who should the emails appear to be from?" which provides a default
sender. Previously the user would have to type ctrl-d to accept the
default. Now the user can just hit return, or type ctrl-d.
2) "Who should the emails be sent to?". Previously this prompt passed a
second argument ("") to $term->readline() which was ignored. I believe
the intent was to allow the user to just hit return. Now the user
can do so, or type ctrl-d.
3) "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the first email?".
Previously this prompt passed a second argument (effectively undef) to
$term->readline() which was ignored. I believe the intent was the same
as for (2), to allow the user to just hit return. Now the user can do
so, or type ctrl-d.
4) "Send this email?". Previously this prompt would loop forever until
it got a valid reply. Now it stops prompting on EOF or a valid reply. In
the case where confirm = "inform", it now defaults to "y" on EOF or the
user hitting return, otherwise an invalid reply causes send-email to
terminate.
A followup patch adds tests for the new functionality.

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'?).

Since 6564828 (git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient
mechanism., 2007-12-25) we can suppress automatic Cc generation
separately for each of the possible address sources. However,
--suppress-cc=sob suppressed both SOB lines and body (but not header)
Cc lines, contrary to the name.
Change --suppress-cc=sob to mean only SOB lines, and add separate
choices 'bodycc' (body Cc lines) and 'body' (both 'sob' and 'bodycc').
The option --no-signed-off-by-cc now acts like --suppress-cc=sob,
which is not backwards compatible but matches the name of the option.

When git format-patch is given multiple --cc arguments, it generates a

- Adds use of Mail::Address if available for splitting Cc line and
the "Who should the emails be sent to?" prompt", with fall back to
