The "git-publish" tool is a useful git extension for sending patch
series for code review. It automatically creates versioned tags
each time code on a branch is sent, so that there is a record of
each version. It also remembers the cover letter so it does not
need re-entering each time the series is reposted.

With this config file present it is now sufficient[1] to run

 $ git publish

to send all patches in a branch to the list for review, with the
correct subject prefix added for this non-core libvirt module.

[1] Assuming your $HOME/.gitconfig has an SMTP server listed
at least e.g.

  [sendemail]
       smtpserver = smtp.example.com

I found the reverse order, i.e.
'rust PATCH'
to be both nicer and more useful. (not to mention more common)

For example, in some downstream lists I use a simple text match
against 'libvirt PATCH', which also catches any subsequent version
