--[no-]cc-cover::
If this is set, emails found in Cc: headers in the first patch of
the series (typically the cover letter) are added to the cc list
for each email set. Default is the value of 'sendemail.ccCover'
configuration value; if that is unspecified, default to --no-cc-cover.
--[no-]to-cover::
If this is set, emails found in To: headers in the first patch of
the series (typically the cover letter) are added to the to list
for each email set. Default is the value of 'sendemail.toCover'
configuration value; if that is unspecified, default to --no-to-cover.
--suppress-cc=<category>::
Specify an additional category of recipients to suppress the
auto-cc of:
+
--
- 'author' will avoid including the patch author.
- 'self' will avoid including the sender.
- 'cc' will avoid including anyone mentioned in Cc lines in the patch header
except for self (use 'self' for that).
- 'bodycc' will avoid including anyone mentioned in Cc lines in the
patch body (commit message) except for self (use 'self' for that).
- 'sob' will avoid including anyone mentioned in the Signed-off-by trailers except
for self (use 'self' for that).
- 'misc-by' will avoid including anyone mentioned in Acked-by,
Reviewed-by, Tested-by and other "-by" lines in the patch body,
except Signed-off-by (use 'sob' for that).
- 'cccmd' will avoid running the --cc-cmd.
- 'body' is equivalent to 'sob' + 'bodycc' + 'misc-by'.
- 'all' will suppress all auto cc values.
--
+
Default is the value of `sendemail.suppressCc` configuration value; if
that is unspecified, default to 'self' if --suppress-from is
specified, as well as 'body' if --no-signed-off-cc is specified.
--[no-]suppress-from::
If this is set, do not add the From: address to the cc: list.
Default is the value of `sendemail.suppressFrom` configuration
value; if that is unspecified, default to --no-suppress-from.
--[no-]thread::
If this is set, the In-Reply-To and References headers will be
added to each email sent. Whether each mail refers to the
previous email (`deep` threading per 'git format-patch'
wording) or to the first email (`shallow` threading) is
governed by "--[no-]chain-reply-to".
+
If disabled with "--no-thread", those headers will not be added
(unless specified with --in-reply-to). Default is the value of the
`sendemail.thread` configuration value; if that is unspecified,
default to --thread.
+
It is up to the user to ensure that no In-Reply-To header already
exists when 'git send-email' is asked to add it (especially note that
'git format-patch' can be configured to do the threading itself).
Failure to do so may not produce the expected result in the
recipient's MUA.
--[no-]mailmap::
Use the mailmap file (see linkgit:gitmailmap[5]) to map all
addresses to their canonical real name and email address. Additional
mailmap data specific to git-send-email may be provided using the
`sendemail.mailmap.file` or `sendemail.mailmap.blob` configuration
values. Defaults to `sendemail.mailmap`.
Administering
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
--confirm=<mode>::
Confirm just before sending:
+
--
- 'always' will always confirm before sending
- 'never' will never confirm before sending
- 'cc' will confirm before sending when send-email has automatically
added addresses from the patch to the Cc list
- 'compose' will confirm before sending the first message when using --compose.
- 'auto' is equivalent to 'cc' + 'compose'
--
+
Default is the value of `sendemail.confirm` configuration value; if that
is unspecified, default to 'auto' unless any of the suppress options
have been specified, in which case default to 'compose'.
--dry-run::
Do everything except actually send the emails.
--[no-]format-patch::
When an argument may be understood either as a reference or as a file name,
choose to understand it as a format-patch argument (`--format-patch`)
or as a file name (`--no-format-patch`). By default, when such a conflict
occurs, git send-email will fail.
--quiet::
Make git-send-email less verbose.
