Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] format-patch: Add a config option format.from to set the default for --from
Date: Sat, 30 Jul 2016 12:11:11 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160730191111.cd6ay3l4hweyjf7f@x> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.4d006cadf197f80d899ad7d7d56d8ba41f574adf.1469905775.git-series.josh@joshtriplett.org>
This helps users who would prefer format-patch to default to --from, and
makes it easier to change the default in the future.

+format.from::
+ Provides the default value for the `--from` option to format-patch.
+ Accepts a boolean value, or a name and email address. If false,

+ `--from`, using your committer identity in the "From:" field of patch

format.numbered::
A boolean which can enable or disable sequence numbers in patch
subjects. It defaults to "auto" which enables it only if there
