For some reason I am not happy with it :-) There was another suggestion in irc: <wereHamster> pcpa: there's also git-imap-send and it is pretty interesting to put it as a "draft", so one could use any MUA to edit it and choose sending or not, as long as it at least understand imap, and you are using imap of course :-) But I still disliked it because it makes it hard in some cases to actually get a "verbatim" copy of the email containing the patch, and git am at least wants the email headers, etc. >> Another option could be to create a bugzilla entry >> per patch.
