I only said I can "understand" what is going on, though.
It feels a bit unnatural for a test to feed a message that lack the
"From " header line. Perhaps
git format-patch --add-header="Message-Id: ..." --stdout -1
or something?

Ah, I see. Let's not worry about this; we cannot change the
expectation existing hook scripts depends on.

Yeah, so the idea is:
- upon the very first invocation, we parse the command line options
and write the states out;
- subsequent invocation, we read from the states and then override
with the command line options, but we do not write the states out
to update, so that subsequent invocations will keep reading from
the very first one.
That sounds sensible.

Sorry, you lost me. Where does the TTY come into the picture only
for --3way (but not for other things like --quiet)?
