GIT-SEND-EMAIL(1) Git Manual GIT-SEND-EMAIL(1)
NAME
git-send-email - Send a collection of patches as emails
SYNOPSIS
git send-email [options] <file|directory|rev-list options>...
DESCRIPTION
Takes the patches given on the command line and emails them out. Patches can be specified as files, directories (which will send all files
in the directory), or directly as a revision list. In the last case, any format accepted by git-format-patch(1) can be passed to git
send-email.
The header of the email is configurable by command line options. If not specified on the command line, the user will be prompted with a
ReadLine enabled interface to provide the necessary information.
There are two formats accepted for patch files:
1. mbox format files
This is what git-format-patch(1) generates. Most headers and MIME formatting are ignored.
2. The original format used by Greg Kroah-Hartman's send_lots_of_email.pl script
This format expects the first line of the file to contain the "Cc:" value and the "Subject:" of the message as the second line.
OPTIONS
Composing
--annotate
Review and edit each patch you're about to send. See the CONFIGURATION section for sendemail.multiedit.
--bcc=<address>
Specify a "Bcc:" value for each email. Default is the value of sendemail.bcc.
The --bcc option must be repeated for each user you want on the bcc list.
--cc=<address>
Specify a starting "Cc:" value for each email. Default is the value of sendemail.cc.
The --cc option must be repeated for each user you want on the cc list.
--compose
Invoke a text editor (see GIT_EDITOR in git-var(1)) to edit an introductory message for the patch series.
When --compose is used, git send-email will use the From, Subject, and In-Reply-To headers specified in the message. If the body of the
message (what you type after the headers and a blank line) only contains blank (or GIT: prefixed) lines the summary won't be sent, but
From, Subject, and In-Reply-To headers will be used unless they are removed.
Missing From or In-Reply-To headers will be prompted for.
See the CONFIGURATION section for sendemail.multiedit.
--from=<address>
Specify the sender of the emails. If not specified on the command line, the value of the sendemail.from configuration option is used.
If neither the command line option nor sendemail.from are set, then the user will be prompted for the value. The default for the prompt
will be the value of GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT, or GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT if that is not set, as returned by "git var -l".
--in-reply-to=<identifier>
Specify the contents of the first In-Reply-To header. Subsequent emails will refer to the previous email instead of this if
--chain-reply-to is set. Only necessary if --compose is also set. If --compose is not set, this will be prompted for.
--subject=<string>
Specify the initial subject of the email thread. Only necessary if --compose is also set. If --compose is not set, this will be
prompted for.
--to=<address>
Specify the primary recipient of the emails generated. Generally, this will be the upstream maintainer of the project involved. Default
is the value of the sendemail.to configuration value; if that is unspecified, this will be prompted for.
The --to option must be repeated for each user you want on the to list.
Sending
--envelope-sender=<address>
Specify the envelope sender used to send the emails. This is useful if your default address is not the address that is subscribed to a
list. In order to use the From address, set the value to "auto". If you use the sendmail binary, you must have suitable privileges for
the -f parameter. Default is the value of the sendemail.envelopesender configuration variable; if that is unspecified, choosing the
envelope sender is left to your MTA.
--smtp-encryption=<encryption>
Specify the encryption to use, either ssl or tls. Any other value reverts to plain SMTP. Default is the value of
sendemail.smtpencryption.
--smtp-pass[=<password>]
Password for SMTP-AUTH. The argument is optional: If no argument is specified, then the empty string is used as the password. Default
is the value of sendemail.smtppass, however --smtp-pass always overrides this value.
Furthermore, passwords need not be specified in configuration files or on the command line. If a username has been specified (with
--smtp-user or a sendemail.smtpuser), but no password has been specified (with --smtp-pass or sendemail.smtppass), then the user is
prompted for a password while the input is masked for privacy.
--smtp-server=<host>
If set, specifies the outgoing SMTP server to use (e.g. smtp.example.com or a raw IP address). Alternatively it can specify a full
pathname of a sendmail-like program instead; the program must support the -i option. Default value can be specified by the
sendemail.smtpserver configuration option; the built-in default is /usr/sbin/sendmail or /usr/lib/sendmail if such program is
available, or localhost otherwise.
--smtp-server-port=<port>
Specifies a port different from the default port (SMTP servers typically listen to smtp port 25, but may also listen to submission port
587, or the common SSL smtp port 465); symbolic port names (e.g. "submission" instead of 587) are also accepted. The port can also be
set with the sendemail.smtpserverport configuration variable.
--smtp-ssl
Legacy alias for --smtp-encryption ssl.
--smtp-user=<user>
Username for SMTP-AUTH. Default is the value of sendemail.smtpuser; if a username is not specified (with --smtp-user or
sendemail.smtpuser), then authentication is not attempted.
Automating
--cc-cmd=<command>
Specify a command to execute once per patch file which should generate patch file specific "Cc:" entries. Output of this command must
be single email address per line. Default is the value of sendemail.cccmd configuration value.
--[no-]chain-reply-to
If this is set, each email will be sent as a reply to the previous email sent. If disabled with "--no-chain-reply-to", all emails after
the first will be sent as replies to the first email sent. When using this, it is recommended that the first file given be an overview
of the entire patch series. Disabled by default, but the sendemail.chainreplyto configuration variable can be used to enable it.
--identity=<identity>
A configuration identity. When given, causes values in the sendemail.<identity> subsection to take precedence over values in the
sendemail section. The default identity is the value of sendemail.identity.
--[no-]signed-off-by-cc
If this is set, add emails found in Signed-off-by: or Cc: lines to the cc list. Default is the value of sendemail.signedoffbycc
configuration value; if that is unspecified, default to --signed-off-by-cc.
--suppress-cc=<category>
Specify an additional category of recipients to suppress the auto-cc of:
o author will avoid including the patch author
o self will avoid including the sender
o cc will avoid including anyone mentioned in Cc lines in the patch header except for self (use self for that).
o bodycc will avoid including anyone mentioned in Cc lines in the patch body (commit message) except for self (use self for that).
o sob will avoid including anyone mentioned in Signed-off-by lines except for self (use self for that).
o cccmd will avoid running the --cc-cmd.
o body is equivalent to sob + bodycc
o all will suppress all auto cc values.
Default is the value of sendemail.suppresscc configuration value; if that is unspecified, default to self if --suppress-from is
specified, as well as body if --no-signed-off-cc is specified.
--[no-]suppress-from
If this is set, do not add the From: address to the cc: list. Default is the value of sendemail.suppressfrom configuration value;
if that is unspecified, default to --no-suppress-from.
--[no-]thread
If this is set, the In-Reply-To and References headers will be added to each email sent. Whether each mail refers to the previous
email (deep threading per git format-patch wording) or to the first email (shallow threading) is governed by
"--[no-]chain-reply-to".
If disabled with "--no-thread", those headers will not be added (unless specified with --in-reply-to). Default is the value of the
sendemail.thread configuration value; if that is unspecified, default to --thread.
It is up to the user to ensure that no In-Reply-To header already exists when git send-email is asked to add it (especially note
that git format-patch can be configured to do the threading itself). Failure to do so may not produce the expected result in the
recipient's MUA.
Administering
--confirm=<mode>
Confirm just before sending:
o always will always confirm before sending
o never will never confirm before sending
o cc will confirm before sending when send-email has automatically added addresses from the patch to the Cc list
o compose will confirm before sending the first message when using --compose.
o auto is equivalent to cc + compose
Default is the value of sendemail.confirm configuration value; if that is unspecified, default to auto unless any of the suppress
options have been specified, in which case default to compose.
--dry-run
Do everything except actually send the emails.
--[no-]format-patch
When an argument may be understood either as a reference or as a file name, choose to understand it as a format-patch argument
(--format-patch) or as a file name (--no-format-patch). By default, when such a conflict occurs, git send-email will fail.
--quiet
Make git-send-email less verbose. One line per email should be all that is output.
--[no-]validate
Perform sanity checks on patches. Currently, validation means the following:
o Warn of patches that contain lines longer than 998 characters; this is due to SMTP limits as described by
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2821.txt.
Default is the value of sendemail.validate; if this is not set, default to --validate.
CONFIGURATION
sendemail.aliasesfile
To avoid typing long email addresses, point this to one or more email aliases files. You must also supply sendemail.aliasfiletype.
sendemail.aliasfiletype
Format of the file(s) specified in sendemail.aliasesfile. Must be one of mutt, mailrc, pine, elm, or gnus.
sendemail.multiedit
If true (default), a single editor instance will be spawned to edit files you have to edit (patches when --annotate is used, and the
summary when --compose is used). If false, files will be edited one after the other, spawning a new editor each time.
sendemail.confirm
Sets the default for whether to confirm before sending. Must be one of always, never, cc, compose, or auto. See --confirm in the
previous section for the meaning of these values.
