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.
Also update the documentation and add a few tests.
Original patch by me. Revised by Thomas Rast, who contributed the
documentation and test updates.

When git format-patch is given multiple --cc arguments, it generates a
Cc header that looks like:
Cc: first@example.com,
second@example.com,
third@example.com
Before this commit, send-email was unable to handle such a message as it
did not handle folded header lines, nor multiple recipients in a Cc
line.
This patch:
- Unfolds header lines by pre-processing the header before extracting
any of its fields.
- Handles Cc lines with multiple recipients.
- 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
existing split_addrs() function.
- Tests the new functionality and adds two tests for detecting whether
"From:" appears correctly in message body when patch author differs
from patch sender.

The loop picks elements from @ARGV one by one, sifts them into arguments
meant for format-patch and the script itself, and pushes them to @files
and @rev_list_opts arrays. Pick elements from @ARGV starting at the
beginning using shift, instead of at the end using pop, as push appends
them to the end of the array.

Since dbf5e1e9, the '--no-validate' option is a Getopt::Long boolean
option. The '--no-' prefix (as in --no-validate) for boolean options
is not supported in Getopt::Long version 2.32 which was released with
Perl 5.8.0. This version only supports '--no' as in '--novalidate'.
More recent versions of Getopt::Long, such as version 2.34, support
either prefix. So use the older form in the tests.

Scriptlets used form inside this test began with hardcoded "#!/bin/sh".
By setting SHELL_PATH the user is already telling us that what the vendor
has in /bin/sh isn't POSIX enough, and we really should try to honor that
request.

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

This fixes the git-send-perl semantics for launching an editor when
$GIT_EDITOR (or friends) contains shell metacharacters to match
launch_editor() in builtin-tag.c. If we use the current approach
(sh -c '$0 $@' "$EDITOR" files ...), we see it fails when $EDITOR has
shell metacharacters:
$ sh -x -c '$0 $@' "$VISUAL" "foo"
+ "$FAKE_EDITOR" foo
"$FAKE_EDITOR": 1: "$FAKE_EDITOR": not found
Whereas builtin-tag.c will invoke sh -c "$EDITOR \"$@\"".
Thus, this patch changes git-send-email.perl to use the same method as the
C utilities, and additionally updates t/t9001-send-email.sh to test for
this bug.

Many scripts compare actual and expected output using
"diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows
how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff
understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure.
This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and
switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function
uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its
arguments; the default is "diff -u".
On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do:
GIT_TEST_CMP=cmp make test

We try to catch errors early so that we don't end up sending
half of a broken patch series. Right now the only validation
is checking that line-lengths are under the SMTP-mandated
limit of 998.
The validation parsing is very crude (it just checks each
line length without understanding the mailbox format) but
should work fine for this simple check.

not see it printed when the git-send-email command was run.
This patch prints all headers that would be sent to sendmail or an SMTP

the now-extraneous Date header after the "Log says" line.
