Currently we keep getting questions even when the user has properly
configured his full name and password:
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>]
And once a question pops up, other questions are turned on. This is
annoying.
The reason it's safe to avoid this question is because currently the
script fails completely when the author (or committer) is not correct,
so we won't even be reaching this point in the code.
The scenarios, and the current situation:
1) No information at all, no fully qualified domain name
fatal: empty ident name (for <felipec@nysa.(none)>) not allowed
2) Only full name
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'felipec@nysa.(none)')
3) Full name + fqdm
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipec@nysa.felipec.org>]
4) Full name + EMAIL
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>]
5) User configured
6) GIT_COMMITTER
7) GIT_AUTHOR
All these are the same as 4)
After this patch:
1) 2) won't change: git send-email would still die
4) 5) 6) 7) will change: git send-email won't ask the user
This is good, that's what we would expect, because the identity is
explicit.
3) will change: git send-email won't ask the user
This is bad, because we will try with an address such as
'felipec@nysa.felipec.org', which is most likely not what the user
wants, but the user will get warned by default (confirm=auto), and if
not, most likely the sending won't work, which the user would readily
note and fix.
The worst possible scenario is that such mail address does work, and the
user sends an email from that address unintentionally, when in fact the
user expected to correct that address in the prompt. This is a very,
very, very unlikely scenario, with many dependencies:
1) No configured user.name/user.email
2) No specified $EMAIL
3) No configured sendemail.from
4) No specified --from argument
5) A fully qualified domain name
6) A full name in the geckos field
7) A sendmail configuration that allows sending from this domain name
8) confirm=never, or
8.1) confirm configuration not hitting, or
8.2) Getting the error, not being aware of it
9) The user expecting to correct this address in the prompt
In a more likely scenario where 7) is not the case (can't send from
nysa.felipec.org), the user will simply see the mail was not sent
properly, and fix the problem.
The much more likely scenario though, is where 5) is not the case
(nysa.(none)), and git send-email will fail right away like it does now.
So the likelihood of this affecting anybody seriously is very very slim,
and the chances of this affecting somebody slightly are still very
small. The vast majority, if not all, of git users won't be affected
negatively, and a lot will benefit from this.

The RFC2047 unquoting, used to parse email addresses in From and Cc
headers, is broken in several ways:
* It erroneously substitutes ' ' for '_' in *the whole* header, even
outside the quoted field. [Noticed by Christoph.]
* It is too liberal in its matching, and happily matches the start
of one quoted chunk against the end of another, or even just
something that looks like such an end. [Noticed by Junio.]
* It fundamentally cannot cope with encodings that are not a
superset of ASCII, nor several (incompatible) encodings in the
same header.
This patch fixes the first two by doing a more careful decoding of
the outer quoting (e.g. "=AB" to represent an octet whose value is
0xAB). Fixing the fundamental issues is left for a future, more
intrusive, patch.

cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30) broke
the expansion of aliases.
This was caused by treating %config_path_settings, newly introduced in
said patch, like %config_bool_settings instead of like %config_settings.
Copy from %config_settings, making it more readable.
While at it add basic test for expansion of aliases, and for path
expansion, which would catch this error.
Nb. there were a few issues that were responsible for this error:
1. %config_bool_settings and %config_settings despite similar name have
different semantic.
%config_bool_settings values are arrays where the first element is
(reference to) the variable to set, and second element is default
value... which admittedly is a bit cryptic. More readable if more
verbose option would be to use hash reference, e.g.:
my %config_bool_settings = (
"thread" => { variable => \$thread, default => 1},
[...]
%config_settings values are either either reference to scalar variable
or reference to array. In second case it means that option (or config
option) is multi-valued. BTW. this is similar to what Getopt::Long does.
2. In cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30)
the setting "aliasesfile" was moved from %config_settings to newly
introduced %config_path_settings. But the loop that parses settings
from %config_path_settings was copy'n'pasted *wrongly* from
%config_bool_settings instead of from %config_settings.
It looks like cec5dae author cargo-culted this change...

When an initial --in-reply-to is supplied, make it apply only to the
first message; --[no-]chain-reply-to setting are honored by second and
subsequent messages; this is also how the git-format-patch option with
the same name behaves.
Moreover, when $initial_reply_to is asked to the user interactively it
is asked as the "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the _first_
email", this makes the user think that the second and subsequent
patches are not using it but are considered as replies to the first
message or chained according to the --[no-]chain-reply setting.
Look at the v2 series in the illustration to see what the new behavior
ensures:
(before the patch) | (after the patch)
[PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... | [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did...
[PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests | [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests
[PATCH 2/2] Implementation | [PATCH 2/2] Implementation
[PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll | [PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll
[PATCH v2 1/3] Clean up | [PATCH v2 1/3] Clean up
[PATCH v2 2/3] New tests | [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests
[PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation | [PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation
This is the typical behaviour we want when we send a series with cover
letter in reply to some discussion, the new patch series should appear
as a separate subtree in the discussion.
Also update the documentation on --in-reply-to to describe the new
behavior.

1. When --in-reply-to gives $reply_to, the first one becomes a reply to
that message, with or without --chain-reply-to.
2. When --chain-reply-to is in effect, all the messages are strung
together to form a single chain. The first message may be in reply to
the $reply_to given by --in-reply-to command line option (see
previous), or the root of the discussion thread. The second one is a
response to the first one, and the third one is a response to the
second one, etc.
3. When --chain-reply-to is not in effect:
a. When --in-reply-to is used, too, the second and the subsequent ones
become replies to $reply_to. Together with the first rule, all
messages become replies to $reply_to given by --in-reply-to.
b. When --in-reply-to is not used, presumably the second and
subsequent ones become replies to the first one, which would be the
root.
The documentation is reasonably clear about the 1., 2. and 3a. above, I
think, even though I do not think 3b. is clearly specified.
The two tests added by this patch at least documents what happens between
these two options.

It's a minor annoyance when you take the painstaking time to setup To:
headers for each patch in a large series, and then go out to send the
series with git-send-email and watch git ignore the To: headers in the
patch files.
Therefore, always add To: headers from a patch file to the To: headers
for that message. Keep the prompt for the blanket To: header so as to
not break scripts (and user expectations). This means even if a patch
has a To: header, git will prompt for the To: address. Otherwise, we'll
need to introduce interface breakage to either request the header for
each patch missing a To: header or default the header to whatever To:
address is found first (be it in a patch or from user input). Both of
these options don't seem very obvious/useful.

After commit 3e0c4ff (send-email: respect in-reply-to regardless of

for an "In-Reply-To", but not for controlling whether the "In-Reply-To"

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
