Subject: [PATCH 0/2] format-patch --force-inbody-from
Date: Fri, 26 Aug 2022 14:32:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220826213203.3258022-1-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)
Users may be authoring and committing their commits under the same
e-mail address they use to send their patches from, in which case
they shouldn't need to use the in-body From: line in their outgoing
e-mails. At the receiving end, "git am" will use the address on the
"From:" header of the incoming e-mail and all should be well.
Some mailing lists, however, mangle the From: address from what the
original sender had; in such an unfortunate situation, the user may
want to add the in-body "From:" header even for their own patch.
The two-patch series may help such users.
* The first one introduces a small helper to separate the logic
that decides when in-body From: is used.
* The second one adds a minimum support with a new test.
Junio C Hamano (2):
