2011-04-19Documentation/format-patch: suggest Toggle Word Wrap add-on for ThunderbirdLibravatar Johannes Sixt1-4/+14
Of the (now) three methods to send unmangled patches using Thunderbird, this method is listed first because it provides a single-click on-demand option rather than a permanent change of configuration like the other two methods.

2011-04-15doc: Clarify that "cherry-pick -x" does not use "git notes"Libravatar Sebastian Schuberth1-3/+4
The documentation for "cherry-pick -x" could be misread in the way that a "git notes" object is attached to the new commit, which is not the case. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Schuberth <sschuberth@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-04-15Documentation: publicize hints for sending patches with GMailLibravatar Jonathan Nieder4-55/+61
The hints in SubmittingPatches about stopping GMail from clobbering patches are widely useful both as examples of "git send-email" and "git imap-send" usage. Move the documentation to the appropriate places. While at it, don't encourage storing passwords in config files.

2011-04-15Documentation: publicize KMail hints for sending patches inlineLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-20/+18
These hints are in git's private SubmittingPatches document but a wider audience might be interested. Move them to the "git format-patch" manpage. I'm not sure what gotchas these hints are meant to work around. They might be completely false. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Nieder <jrnieder@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2011-04-15Documentation: hints for sending patches inline with ThunderbirdLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-80/+84
The standard reference for this information is the article "Plain text e-mail - Thunderbird#Completely_plain_email" at kb.mozillazine.org, but the hints hidden away in git's SubmittingPatches file are more complete. Move them to the "git format-patch" manual so they can be installed with git and read by a wide audience. While at it, make some tweaks: - update "Approach #1" so it might work with Thunderbird 3; - remove ancient version numbers from the descriptions of both approaches so current readers might have more reason to complain if they don't work.

2011-04-15Documentation: explain how to check for patch corruptionLibravatar Jonathan Nieder2-44/+60
SubmittingPatches has some excellent advice about how to check a patch for corruption before sending it off. Move it to the format-patch manual so it can be installed with git's documentation for use by people not necessarily interested in the git project's practices.
