2015-11-20sendemail: teach git-send-email to dump alias namesLibravatar Jacob Keller1-0/+11
Add an option "--dump-aliases" which changes the default behavior of git-send-email. This mode will simply read the alias files configured by sendemail.aliasesfile and sendemail.aliasfiletype and dump a list of all configured aliases, one per line. The intended use case for this option is the bash-completion script which will use it to autocomplete aliases on the options which take addresses. Add some tests for the new option using various alias file formats. A possible future extension to the alias dump format could be done by extending the --dump-aliases to take an optional argument defining the format to display. This has not been done in this patch as no user of this information has been identified. Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

2015-08-17send-email: provide whitelist of SMTP AUTH mechanismsLibravatar Jan Viktorin1-0/+13
When sending an e-mail, the client and server must agree on an authentication mechanism. Some servers (due to misconfiguration or a bug) deny valid credentials for certain mechanisms. In this patch, a new option --smtp-auth and configuration entry smtpAuth are introduced. If smtp_auth is defined, it works as a whitelist of allowed mechanisms for authentication selected from the ones supported by the installed SASL perl library.

Accept a list of emails separated by commas in flags --cc, --to and --bcc. Multiple addresses can already be given by using these options multiple times, but it is more convenient to allow cutting-and-pasting a list of addresses from the header of an existing e-mail message, which already lists them as comma-separated list, as a value to a single parameter. The following format can now be used: $ git send-email --to='Jane <jdoe@example.com>, mike@example.com' Remove the limitation imposed by 79ee555b (Check and document the options to prevent mistakes, 2006-06-21) which rejected every argument with comma in --cc, --to and --bcc.

2014-11-25git-send-email: add --transfer-encoding optionLibravatar Paolo Bonzini1-0/+10
The thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/257392 details problems when applying patches with "git am" in a repository with CRLF line endings. In the example in the thread, the repository originated from "git-svn" so it is not possible to use core.eol and friends on it. Right now, the best option is to use "git am --keep-cr". However, when a patch create new files, the patch application process will reject the new file because it finds a "/dev/null\r" string instead of "/dev/null". The problem is that SMTP transport is CRLF-unsafe. Sending a patch by email is the same as passing it through "dos2unix | unix2dos". The newly introduced CRLFs are normally transparent because git-am strips them. The keepcr=true setting preserves them, but it is mostly working by chance and it would be very problematic to have a "git am" workflow in a repository with mixed LF and CRLF line endings. The MIME solution to this is the quoted-printable transfer enconding. This is not something that we want to enable by default, since it makes received emails horrible to look at. However, it is a very good match for projects that store CRLF line endings in the repository. The only disadvantage of quoted-printable is that quoted-printable patches fail to apply if the maintainer uses "git am --keep-cr". This is because the decoded patch will have two carriage returns at the end of the line. Therefore, add support for base64 transfer encoding too, which makes received emails downright impossible to look at outside a MUA, but really just works. The patch covers all bases, including users that still live in the late 80s, by also providing a 7bit content transfer encoding that refuses to send emails with non-ASCII character in them. And finally, "8bit" will add a Content-Transfer-Encoding header but otherwise do nothing. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2013-07-18send-email: be explicit with SSL certificate verificationLibravatar Ramkumar Ramachandra1-0/+6
When initiating an SSL connection without explicitly specifying the SSL certificate verification mode, Net::SMTP::SSL defaults to no verification, but recent versions of the module gives a warning against this use of the default. Enable certificate verification by default, using /etc/ssl/certs as the default path for certificates of certificate authorities. This path can be overriden by the --smtp-ssl-cert-path command line option and the sendemail.smtpSSLCertPath configuration variable. Passing an empty string as the path for CA certificates path disables the SSL certificate verification explicitly, which does not trigger the warning from recent versions of Net::SMTP::SSL.

2011-07-06Documentation: use [verse] for SYNOPSIS sectionsLibravatar Martin von Zweigbergk1-0/+1
The SYNOPSIS sections of most commands that span several lines already use [verse] to retain line breaks. Most commands that don't span several lines seem not to use [verse]. In the HTML output, [verse] does not only preserve line breaks, but also makes the section indented, which causes a slight inconsistency between commands that use [verse] and those that don't. Use [verse] in all SYNOPSIS sections for consistency. Also remove the blank lines from git-fetch.txt and git-rebase.txt to align with the other man pages. In the case of git-rebase.txt, which already uses [verse], the blank line makes the [verse] not apply to the last line, so removing the blank line also makes the formatting within the document more consistent. While at it, add single quotes to 'git cvsimport' for consistency with other commands.

2011-03-11doc: drop author/documentation sections from most pagesLibravatar Jeff King1-15/+0
The point of these sections is generally to: 1. Give credit where it is due. 2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or file bug reports. But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody useless. So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section to give credit to the major contributors and point to shortlog and blame for more information. Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can follow that to the main git manpage.

2010-11-12git-send-email.perl: make initial In-Reply-To apply only to first emailLibravatar Antonio Ospite1-5/+20
When an initial --in-reply-to is supplied, make it apply only to the first message; --[no-]chain-reply-to setting are honored by second and subsequent messages; this is also how the git-format-patch option with the same name behaves. Moreover, when $initial_reply_to is asked to the user interactively it is asked as the "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the _first_ email", this makes the user think that the second and subsequent patches are not using it but are considered as replies to the first message or chained according to the --[no-]chain-reply setting. Look at the v2 series in the illustration to see what the new behavior ensures: (before the patch) | (after the patch) [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... | [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests | [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests [PATCH 2/2] Implementation | [PATCH 2/2] Implementation [PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll | [PATCH v2 0/3] Here is a reroll [PATCH v2 1/3] Clean up | [PATCH v2 1/3] Clean up [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests | [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests [PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation | [PATCH v2 3/3] Implementation This is the typical behaviour we want when we send a series with cover letter in reply to some discussion, the new patch series should appear as a separate subtree in the discussion.

In http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/109790 I threatened to announce a change to the default threading style used by send-email to no-chain-reply-to (i.e. the second and subsequent messages will all be replies to the first one), unless nobody objected, in 1.6.3. Nobody objected, as far as I can dig the list archive. But when nothing happened in 1.6.3 nor 1.6.4, nobody from the camp who complained loudly that led to the message did not complain either. So I am guessing that after all nobody cares about this. But 1.7.0 is a good time to change this, and as I said in the message, I personally think it is a good change, so here it is.
