When multiple recipients are given to git-send-email on the same --cc line the code does not properly handle it. Full and proper parsing of the email addresses so I can detect which commas mean a new email address is more than I care to implement. In particular this email address: "bibo,mao" <bibo.mao@intel.com> must not be treated as two email addresses. So this patch simply treats all commas in recipient lists as an error and fails if one is given. At the same time it documents that git-send-email wants multiple instances of --cc specified on the command line if you want to cc multiple recipients. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

git-send-email - Send a collection of patches as emails
|
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git-send-email' [options] <file|directory> [... file|directory]
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Takes the patches given on the command line and emails them out.
|
|
|
|
The header of the email is configurable by command line options. If not
|
|
specified on the command line, the user will be prompted with a ReadLine
|
|
enabled interface to provide the necessary information.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
The options available are:
|
|
|
|
--bcc::
|
|
Specify a "Bcc:" value for each email.
|
|
|
|
The --bcc option must be repeated for each user you want on the bcc list.
|
|
|
|
--cc::
|
|
Specify a starting "Cc:" value for each email.
|
|
|
|
The --cc option must be repeated for each user you want on the cc list.
|
|
|
|
--chain-reply-to, --no-chain-reply-to::
|
|
If this is set, each email will be sent as a reply to the previous
|
|
email sent. If disabled with "--no-chain-reply-to", all emails after
|
|
the first will be sent as replies to the first email sent. When using
|
|
this, it is recommended that the first file given be an overview of the
|
|
entire patch series.
|
|
Default is --chain-reply-to
|
|
|
|
--compose::
|
|
Use $EDITOR to edit an introductory message for the
|
|
patch series.
|
|
|
|
--from::
|
|
Specify the sender of the emails. This will default to
|
|
the value GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT, as returned by "git-var -l".
|
|
The user will still be prompted to confirm this entry.
|
|
|
|
--in-reply-to::
|
|
Specify the contents of the first In-Reply-To header.
|
|
Subsequent emails will refer to the previous email
|
|
instead of this if --chain-reply-to is set (the default)
|
|
Only necessary if --compose is also set. If --compose
|
|
is not set, this will be prompted for.
|
|
|
|
--no-signed-off-by-cc::
|
|
Do not add emails found in Signed-off-by: lines to the cc list.
|
|
|
|
--quiet::
|
|
Make git-send-email less verbose. One line per email should be
|
|
all that is output.
|
|
|
|
--smtp-server::
|
|
If set, specifies the outgoing SMTP server to use. Defaults to
|
|
localhost.
|
|
|
|
--subject::
|
|
Specify the initial subject of the email thread.
|
|
Only necessary if --compose is also set. If --compose
|
|
is not set, this will be prompted for.
|
|
|
|
--suppress-from::
|
|
Do not add the From: address to the cc: list, if it shows up in a From:
|
|
line.
|
|
|
|
--to::
|
|
Specify the primary recipient of the emails generated.
|
|
Generally, this will be the upstream maintainer of the
|
|
project involved.
|
|
|
|
The --to option must be repeated for each user you want on the to list.
