Ah.  Well, good try.

The 0/n patch probably didn't get though vger's
maximum # of addresses spam filter.

Next time, instead of individually addressing all
the recipients on the 0/N, just cc the mailing
lists.  That greatly reduces the # of addresses
and generally gets through just fine.

If you really want to cc all the individual
MAINTAINERS, you can bcc them, but I don't do
that.  All of the MAINTAINERS should be subscribed
to one or another of the relevant mailing lists.

In my scripts I use:

[relevant bits of ~/.gitconfig]

[sendemail]
        chainreplyto = false
        thread = false
        suppresscc = self
        tocmd = ~/bin/to.sh
        cccmd = ~/bin/cc.sh

$ cat ~/bin/to.sh
#!/bin/bash

opts="--nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --pattern-depth=1"

if [[ $(basename $1) =~ ^0000- ]] ; then
    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nom $opts  $(dirname $1)/*
else
    maint=$(./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nol $opts $1)
    if [ "$maint" == "" ] ; then
        echo "[email protected]"
    else
        echo "$maint"
    fi
fi

$ cat ~/bin/cc.sh
#!/bin/bash

opts="--nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats"

if [[ $(basename $1) =~ ^0000- ]] ; then
    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nom $opts  $(dirname $1)/*
else
    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl $opts $1
