When --compose is used, we can grab the From/Subject/In-Reply-To from the
edited summary, let it be so and don't ask the user silly questions.

The summary templates gets quite revamped, and includes the list of
patches subjects that are going to be sent with this batch.

When having a body full of empty lines, the summary isn't sent. Document
that in the git-send-email manpage fully.

Note: It doesn't deal with To/Cc/Bcc yet.

This allows to review every patch (and fix various aspects of them, or

that git send-email can now process revision lists, this makes git

Since the git-* commands are not installed in $(bindir), using
"git-command <parameters>" in examples in the documentation is
not a good idea. On the other hand, it is nice to be able to
refer to each command using one hyphenated word. (There is no
escaping it, anyway: man page names cannot have spaces in them.)

This patch retains the dash in naming an operation, command,
program, process, or action. Complete command lines that can
be entered at a shell (i.e., without options omitted) are
made to use the dashless form.

The changes consist only of replacing some spaces with hyphens
and vice versa. After a "s/ /-/g", the unpatched and patched
versions are identical.

The OPTIONS section of a documentation file contains a list
of the options a git command accepts.

Currently there are several variants to describe the case that
different options (almost) do the same in the OPTIONS section.

Some are:

 -f, --foo::
 -f|--foo::
 -f | --foo::

But AsciiDoc has the special form:

 -f::
 --foo::

This patch applies this form to the documentation of the whole git suite,
and removes useless em-dash prevention, so \--foo becomes --foo.

There are a few options to git-send-email to suppress the automatic
generation of 'Cc' fields: --suppress-from, and --signed-off-cc.
However, there are other times that git-send-email automatically
includes Cc'd recipients.  This is not desirable for all development
environments.

Add a new option --suppress-cc, which can be specified one or more
times to list the categories of auto-cc fields that should be
suppressed.  If not specified, it defaults to values to give the same
behavior as specified by --suppress-from, and --signed-off-cc.  The
categories are:

  self   - patch sender.  Same as --suppress-from.
  author - patch author.
  cc     - cc lines mentioned in the patch.
  cccmd  - avoid running the cccmd.
  sob    - signed off by lines.
  all    - all non-explicit recipients

Whilst convenient, it is most unwise to record passwords
in any place but one's brain. Moreover, it is especially
foolish to store them in configuration files, even with
access permissions set accordingly.

git-send-email has been amended, so that if it detects
an smtp username without a password, it promptly prompts
for the password and masks the input for privacy.

Furthermore, the argument to --smtp-pass has been rendered
optional.

The documentation has been updated to reflect these changes.

This default regex now matches explicit values, and unfortunately in this
case gitlink was being matched by just 'link', causing the wrong inline
macro template to be applied. By renaming the macro, we can avoid being
matched by the wrong regex.

backed by corresponding defaults in the git configuration file.

This implements Junio's 'mail identity' suggestion in a slightly
more generalised manner. --identity=$identity, backed by
sendemail.identity indicates that the configuration subsection
[sendemail "$identity"] should take priority over the [sendemail]
section for all configuration values.

This change makes git-send-email's behavior easier to modify by adding config

The mapping of flag to config setting is:
  --[no-]supress-from => sendemail.suppressfrom
  --[no-]signed-off-cc => sendemail.signedoffcc
