SYNOPSIS
--------
-'git send-email' [options] <file|directory> [... file|directory]
+'git send-email' [options] <file|directory|rev-list options>...
DESCRIPTION
--cc::
Specify a starting "Cc:" value for each email.
+ Default is the value of 'sendemail.cc'.
+
The --cc option must be repeated for each user you want on the cc list.
+--annotate::
+ Review each patch you're about to send in an editor. The setting
+ 'sendemail.multiedit' defines if this will spawn one editor per patch
+ or one for all of them at once.
+
--compose::
Use $GIT_EDITOR, core.editor, $VISUAL, or $EDITOR to edit an
introductory message for the patch series.
++
+When '--compose' is used, git send-email gets less interactive will use the
+values of the headers you set there. If the body of the email (what you type
+after the headers and a blank line) only contains blank (or GIT: prefixed)
+lines, the summary won't be sent, but git-send-email will still use the
+Headers values if you don't removed them.
++
+If it wasn't able to see a header in the summary it will ask you about it
+interactively after quitting your editor.
--from::
Specify the sender of the emails. This will default to
--[no-]signed-off-by-cc::
If this is set, add emails found in Signed-off-by: or Cc: lines to the
- cc list. Default is the value of 'sendemail.signedoffcc' configuration
+ cc list. Default is the value of 'sendemail.signedoffbycc' configuration
value; if that is unspecified, default to --signed-off-by-cc.
--suppress-cc::
Default is the value of 'sendemail.validate'; if this is not set,
default to '--validate'.
+--[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.
+
CONFIGURATION
-------------
Format of the file(s) specified in sendemail.aliasesfile. Must be
one of 'mutt', 'mailrc', 'pine', or 'gnus'.
+sendemail.multiedit::
+ If true (default), a single editor instance will be spawned to edit
+ files you have to edit (patches when '--annotate' is used, and the
+ summary when '--compose' is used). If false, files will be edited one
+ after the other, spawning a new editor each time.
