Good idea to write this down. How to use the mailing list is only
sparsely documented. The following files talk about sending to the
mailing list:

 1. README.md
 2. Documentation/SubmittingPatches
 3. Documentation/MyFirstContribution.txt
 4. MaintNotes (in Junio's “todo” branch, sent out to the list from
    time to time as “A note from the maintainer”)

2, 3 and 4 mention sending Cc to everyone involved.

2 is about new messages.

3 and 4 specifically talk about keeping everyone in Cc: in replies.
Both in the context of “you don't have to be subscribed and you
don't need to ask for Cc:”.


Please also note, that mutt sets the “Mail-Followup-To:” header by
default for sending to known mailing lists, unless “followup_to” is
set to “no”. Whether or not it removes the sender address in this
header depends on the list address to be known to be subscribed to
or simply known to be a mailing list. It also does not set this
header if no recipient address is known as a mailing list.
