| 5 | NAME | |
| 6 | ---- | |
| 7 | git-send-email-script - Send a collection of patches as emails | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | ||
| 10 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 11 | -------- | |
| 12 | 'git-send-email-script' [options] <file|directory> [... file|directory] | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | ||
| 15 | ||
| 16 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 17 | ----------- | |
| 18 | Takes the patches given on the command line and emails them out. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | The header of the email is configurable by command line options. If not | |
| 21 | specified on the command line, the user will be prompted with a ReadLine | |
| 22 | enabled interface to provide the necessary information. | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | The options available are: | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | --to | |
| 27 | Specify the primary recipient of the emails generated. | |
| 28 | Generally, this will be the upstream maintainer of the | |
| 29 | project involved. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | --from | |
| 32 | Specify the sender of the emails. This will default to | |
| 33 | the value GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT, as returned by "git-var -l". | |
| 34 | The user will still be prompted to confirm this entry. | |
| 35 | ||
| 36 | --subject | |
| 37 | Specify the initial subject of the email thread. | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | --in-reply-to | |
| 40 | Specify the contents of the first In-Reply-To header. | |
| 41 | Subsequent emails will refer to the previous email | |
| 42 | instead of this. | |
| 43 | When overriding on the command line, it may be necessary | |
| 44 | to set this to a space. For example | |
| 45 | --in-reply-to=" " | |
