git send-email --in-reply-to= fails to override In-Reply-To email headers,
if they're present in the output of format-patch, even when explicitly
told to do so by the option --no-thread, which breaks the contract of the
command line switch option, per its man page.
"

Since "git send-email" learned to take 'auto' as the value for the
transfer-encoding, it by mistake stopped honoring the values given
to the configuration variables sendemail.transferencoding and/or
sendemail.<ident>.transferencoding. This has been corrected to
(finally) redoing the order of setting the default, reading the
configuration and command line options.

send-email: fix regression in sendemail.identity parsing
send-email: document --no-[to|cc|bcc]
send-email: fix broken transferEncoding tests
send-email: remove cargo-culted multi-patch pattern in tests
send-email: do defaults -> config -> getopt in that order
send-email: rename the @bcclist variable for consistency
send-email: move the read_config() function above getopts
Fix a regression in my recent 3494dfd3ee ("send-email: do defaults ->
config -> getopt in that order", 2019-05-09). I missed that the
$identity variable needs to be extracted from the command-line before
we do the config reading, as it determines which config variable we
should read first. See [1] for the report.
The sendemail.identity feature was added back in
34cc60ce2b ("send-email: Add support for SSL and SMTP-AUTH",
2007-09-03), there were no tests to assert that it worked properly.
So let's fix both the regression, and add some tests to assert that
this is being parsed properly. While I'm at it I'm adding a
--no-identity option to go with --[to|cc|bcc] variable, since the
semantics are similar. It's like to/cc/bcc except that unlike those we
don't support multiple identities, but we could now easily add it
support for it if anyone cares.
In just fixing the --identity command-line parsing bug I discovered
that a narrow fix to that wouldn't do. In read_config() we had a state
machine that would only set config values if they weren't set already,
and thus by proxy we wouldn't e.g. set "to" based on sendemail.to if
we'd seen sendemail.gmail.to before, with --identity=gmail.
I'd modified some of the relevant code in 3494dfd3ee, but just
reverting to that wouldn't do, since it would bring back the
regression fixed in that commit.
Refactor read_config() do what we actually mean here. We don't want to
set a given sendemail.VAR if a sendemail.$identity.VAR previously set
it. The old code was conflating this desire with the hardcoded
defaults for these variables, and as discussed in 3494dfd3ee that was
never going to work. Instead pass along the state of whether an
identity config set something before, as distinguished from the state
of the default just being false, or the default being a non-bool or
true (e.g. --transferencoding).
I'm still not happy with the test coverage here, e.g. there's nothing
testing sendemail.smtpEncryption, but I only have so much time to fix
this code.

Change the git-send-email command-line argument parsing and config
reading code to parse those two in the right order. I.e. first we set
our hardcoded defaults, then we read our config, and finally we read
the command-line, with later sets overriding earlier sets.
This fixes a bug introduced in e67a228cd8 ("send-email:
automatically determine transfer-encoding", 2018-07-08). That change
broke the reading of sendmail.transferencoding because it wasn't
careful to update the code to parse them in the previous "defaults
-> getopt -> config" order.
But as we can see from the history for this file doing it this way was
never what we actually wanted, it's just something we grew organically
as of 5483c71d7a ("git-send-email: make options easier to configure.",
2007-06-27) and have been dealing with the fallout since, e.g. in
463b0ea22b ("send-email: Fix %config_path_settings handling",
2011-10-14).
As can be seen in this change the only place where we actually want to
do something clever is with the to/cc/bcc variables, where setting
them on the command-line (or using --no-{to,cc,bcc}) should clear out
values we grab from the config.
All the rest are things where the command-line should simply override
the config values, and by reading the config first the config code
doesn't need all this "let's not set it, if it was on the command-line"
special-casing, as [1] shows we'd otherwise need to care about the
difference between whether something was a default or present in
config to fix the bug in e67a228cd8.

The recently added feature to add addresses that are on

"git send-email" has been taught to use quoted-printable when the
payload contains carriage-return. The use of the mechanism is in
line with the design originally added the codepath that chooses QP
when the payload has overly long lines.
* bc/send-email-qp-cr:
send-email: default to quoted-printable when CR is present
In 7a36987fff ("send-email: add an auto option for transfer encoding",
2018-07-08), git send-email learned how to automatically determine the
transfer encoding for a patch. However, the only criterion considered
was the length of the lines.
Another case we need to consider is that of carriage returns. Because
emails have CRLF endings when canonicalized, we don't want to write raw
carriage returns into a patch, lest they be stripped off as an artifact
of the transport. Ensure that we choose quoted-printable encoding if the
patch we're sending contains carriage returns.
Note that we are guaranteed to always correctly encode carriage returns
when writing quoted-printable since we explicitly specify the line
ending as "\n", forcing MIME::QuotedPrint to encode our carriage return
as "=0D".

Since commit ef0cc1df90 ("send-email: also pick up cc addresses from

addresses from all *-by lines. As a side effect a line with
'-Signed-off-by' is now also added to cc. This makes send-email pick
lines from patches that remove patch files from the git repo. This is
common in the Buildroot project that often removes (and adds) patch
files that have 'Signed-off-by' in their patch description part.

This helps format-patch gain completion for a couple new options,
notably --range-diff.
Since send-email completion relies on $__git_format_patch_options
which is now reduced, we need to do something not to regress
send-email completion.
The workaround here is implement --git-completion-helper in
send-email.perl just as a bridge to "format-patch --git-completion-helper".
This is enough to use __gitcomp_builtin on send-email (to take
advantage of caching).
In the end, send-email.perl can probably reuse the same info it passes
to GetOptions() to generate full --git-completion-helper output so
that we don't need to keep track of its options in git-completion.bash
anymore. But that's something for another boring day.

locally in one repository.
--smtp-auth and sendemail.smtpauth now understand the value 'none' which

While the address sanitizations routines do accept local addresses, that
is almost never what is meant in a Cc or Signed-off-by trailer.
Looking through all the signed-off-by lines in the linux kernel tree
without a @, there are mostly two patterns: Either just a full name, or
a full name followed by <user at domain.com> (i.e., with the word at
instead of a @), and minor variations. For cc lines, the same patterns
appear, along with lots of "cc stable" variations that do not actually
name stable@vger.kernel.org
Cc: stable # introduced pre-git times
cc: stable.kernel.org
In the <user at domain.com> cases, one gets a chance to interactively
fix it. But when there is no <> pair, it seems we end up just using the
first word as a (local) address.
As the number of cases where a local address really was meant is
likely (and anecdotally) quite small compared to the number of cases
where we end up cc'ing a garbage address, insist on at least a @ or a <>
pair being present.
This is also preparation for the next patch, where we are likely to
encounter even more non-addresses in -by lines, such as

git send-email, when invoked without a --transfer-encoding option, sends
8bit data without a MIME version or a transfer encoding. This has
several downsides.
First, unless the transfer encoding is specified, it defaults to 7bit,
meaning that non-ASCII data isn't allowed. Second, if lines longer than
998 bytes are used, we will send an message that is invalid according to
RFC 5322. The --validate option, which is the default, catches this
issue, but it isn't clear to many people how to resolve this.
To solve these issues, default the transfer encoding to "auto", so that
we explicitly specify 8bit encoding when lines don't exceed 998 bytes
and quoted-printable otherwise. This means that we now always emit
Content-Transfer-Encoding and MIME-Version headers, so remove the
conditionals from this portion of the code.
It is unlikely that the unconditional inclusion of these two headers
will affect the deliverability of messages in anything but a positive
way, since MIME is already widespread and well understood by most email
programs.

With --validate (which is the default), we warn about lines exceeding
998 characters due to the limits specified in RFC 5322. However, if
we're using a suitable transfer encoding (quoted-printable or base64),
we're guaranteed not to have lines exceeding 76 characters, so there's
no need to fail in this case. The auto transfer encoding handles this
specific case, so accept it as well.

For most patches, using a transfer encoding of 8bit provides good
compatibility with most servers and makes it as easy as possible to view
patches. However, there are some patches for which 8bit is not a valid
encoding: RFC 5322 specifies that a message must not have lines
exceeding 998 octets.
Add a transfer encoding value, auto, which indicates that a patch should
use 8bit where allowed and quoted-printable otherwise. Choose
quoted-printable instead of base64, since base64-encoded plain text is
treated as suspicious by some spam filters.

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.

Replace the perl/Makefile.PL and the fallback perl/Makefile used under
NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=NoThanks with a much simpler implementation heavily
inspired by how the i18n infrastructure's build process works[1].
The reason for having the Makefile.PL in the first place is that it
was initially[2] building a perl C binding to interface with libgit,
this functionality, that was removed[3] before Git.pm ever made it to
the master branch.
We've since since started maintaining a fallback perl/Makefile, as
MakeMaker wouldn't work on some platforms[4]. That's just the tip of
the iceberg. We have the PM.stamp hack in the top-level Makefile[5] to
detect whether we need to regenerate the perl/perl.mak, which I fixed
just recently to deal with issues like the perl version changing from
under us[6].
There is absolutely no reason for why this needs to be so complex
anymore. All we're getting out of this elaborate Rube Goldberg machine
was copying perl/* to perl/blib/* as we do a string-replacement on
the *.pm files to hardcode @@LOCALEDIR@@ in the source, as well as
pod2man-ing Git.pm & friends.
So replace the whole thing with something that's pretty much a copy of
how we generate po/build/**.mo from po/*.po, just with a small sed(1)
command instead of msgfmt. As that's being done rename the files
from *.pm to *.pmc just to indicate that they're generated (see
"perldoc -f require").
While I'm at it, change the fallback for Error.pm from being something
where we'll ship our own Error.pm if one doesn't exist at build time
to one where we just use a Git::Error wrapper that'll always prefer
the system-wide Error.pm, only falling back to our own copy if it
really doesn't exist at runtime. It's now shipped as
Git::FromCPAN::Error, making it easy to add other modules to
Git::FromCPAN::* in the future if that's needed.
Functional changes:
* This will not always install into perl's idea of its global
"installsitelib". This only potentially matters for packagers that
need to expose Git.pm for non-git use, and as explained in the
INSTALL file there's a trivial workaround.
* The scripts themselves will 'use lib' the target directory, but if
INSTLIBDIR is set it overrides it. It doesn't have to be this way,
it could be set in addition to INSTLIBDIR, but my reading of [7] is
that this is the desired behavior.
* We don't build man pages for all of the perl modules as we used to,
only Git(3pm). As discussed on-list[8] that we were building
installed manpages for purely internal APIs like Git::I18N or
private-Error.pm was always a bug anyway, and all the Git::SVN::*
ones say they're internal APIs.
There are apparently external users of Git.pm, but I don't expect
there to be any of the others.
As a side-effect of these general changes the perl documentation
now only installed by install-{doc,man}, not a mere "install" as
before.

This extends git-send-email to also consider sendmail binaries in $PATH
after checking the (fixed) list of /usr/sbin and /usr/lib, and before
falling back to localhost.

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.

Unless --no-validate is passed, send-email will invoke
$repo->repo_path() in its search for a validate hook regardless of
whether a Git repo is actually present. Teach send-email to first check
for repo existence.
