2009-03-29send-email: refactor and ensure prompting doesn't loop foreverLibravatar Jay Soffian1-32/+34
Several places in send-email prompt for input, and will do so forever when the input is EOF. This is poor behavior when send-email is run unattended (say from cron). This patch refactors the prompting to an ask() function which takes a prompt, an optional default, and an optional regex to validate the input. The function returns on EOF, or if a default is provided and the user simply types return, or if the input passes the validating regex (which accepts all input by default). The ask() function gives up after 10 tries in case of invalid input. There are four callers of the function: 1) "Who should the emails appear to be from?" which provides a default sender. Previously the user would have to type ctrl-d to accept the default. Now the user can just hit return, or type ctrl-d. 2) "Who should the emails be sent to?". Previously this prompt passed a second argument ("") to $term->readline() which was ignored. I believe the intent was to allow the user to just hit return. Now the user can do so, or type ctrl-d. 3) "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the first email?". Previously this prompt passed a second argument (effectively undef) to $term->readline() which was ignored. I believe the intent was the same as for (2), to allow the user to just hit return. Now the user can do so, or type ctrl-d. 4) "Send this email?". Previously this prompt would loop forever until it got a valid reply. Now it stops prompting on EOF or a valid reply. In the case where confirm = "inform", it now defaults to "y" on EOF or the user hitting return, otherwise an invalid reply causes send-email to terminate. A followup patch adds tests for the new functionality. Signed-off-by: Jay Soffian <jaysoffian@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2009-03-02send-email: add --confirm option and configuration settingLibravatar Jay Soffian1-23/+61
send-email violates the principle of least surprise by automatically cc'ing additional recipients without confirming this with the user. This patch teaches send-email a --confirm option. It takes the following values: --confirm=always always confirm before sending --confirm=never never confirm before sending --confirm=cc confirm before sending when send-email has automatically added addresses from the patch to the Cc list --confirm=compose confirm before sending the first message when using --compose. (Needed to maintain backwards compatibility with existing behavior.) --confirm=auto 'cc' + 'compose' If sendemail.confirm is unconfigured, the option defaults to 'compose' if any suppress-Cc related options have been used, otherwise it defaults to 'auto'. Unfortunately, it is impossible to introduce this patch such that it helps new users without potentially annoying some existing users. We attempt to mitigate the latter by: * Allowing the user to set 'git config sendemail.confirm never' * Allowing the user to say 'all' after the first prompt to not be prompted on remaining emails during the same invocation. * Telling the user about the 'sendemail.confirm' setting if it is unconfigured whenever we prompt due to Cc before sending. * Only prompting if no --suppress related options have been passed, as using such an option is likely to indicate an experienced send-email user. There is a slight fib in message informing the user of the sendemail.confirm setting and this is intentional. Setting 'auto' differs from leaving sendemail.confirm unset in two ways: 1) 'auto' obviously squelches the informational message; 2) 'auto' prompts when the Cc list has been expanded even in the presence of a --suppress related option, where leaving sendemail.confirm unset does not. This is intentional to keep the message simple, and to avoid adding another sendemail.confirm value ('auto-except-suppress'?).

2009-02-23send-email: don't create temporary compose file until it is neededLibravatar Jay Soffian1-9/+11
Commit eed6ca7 caused a minor regression when it switched to using tempfile() to generate the temporary compose file. Since tempfile() creates the file at the time it generates the filename, zero-length temporary files are being left behind unless --compose is used (in which case the file is cleaned up). This patch fixes the regression by not calling tempfile() to generate the compose filename unless --compose is in use.

2009-02-14send-email: --suppress-cc improvementsLibravatar Jay Soffian1-9/+19
Since 6564828 (git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient mechanism., 2007-12-25) we can suppress automatic Cc generation separately for each of the possible address sources. However, --suppress-cc=sob suppressed both SOB lines and body (but not header) Cc lines, contrary to the name. Change --suppress-cc=sob to mean only SOB lines, and add separate choices 'bodycc' (body Cc lines) and 'body' (both 'sob' and 'bodycc'). The option --no-signed-off-by-cc now acts like --suppress-cc=sob, which is not backwards compatible but matches the name of the option. Also update the documentation and add a few tests. Original patch by me. Revised by Thomas Rast, who contributed the documentation and test updates. Signed-off-by: Jay Soffian <jaysoffian@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-02-14send-email: handle multiple Cc addresses when reading mbox messageLibravatar Jay Soffian1-67/+86
When git format-patch is given multiple --cc arguments, it generates a Cc header that looks like: Cc: first@example.com, second@example.com, third@example.com Before this commit, send-email was unable to handle such a message as it did not handle folded header lines, nor multiple recipients in a Cc line. This patch: - Unfolds header lines by pre-processing the header before extracting any of its fields. - Handles Cc lines with multiple recipients. - Adds use of Mail::Address if available for splitting Cc line and the "Who should the emails be sent to?" prompt", with fall back to existing split_addrs() function. - Tests the new functionality and adds two tests for detecting whether "From:" appears correctly in message body when patch author differs from patch sender.
