If your mail setup support imap, the patches can be dumped directly into
it rather than having to go through an mbox. For instance you can have
something like this in your ~/.gitconfig:
[imap]
Host = imap.server.com
Folder = "Drafts"
User = uname
Pass = password
And then the above command line becomes:
git-format-patch -s --stdout $root | git-imap-send
To move all the patches into your imap drafts folder to be accessed
by whatever email client you use.
