Hi,
I am trying to send a thread of patches to a mailinglist but the e-mails do
not show up as one thread in some mailclients.
Gmane shows the patches nicely in one thread [1], but Thunderbird shows all
of them _except one_ as a thread. E-mail [PATCH 02/31]
does not show up in the thread but beside it. The CC-ed emails which arrived
in my inbox do not appear in one thread either, half of
them do end up in one thread, the other half don't. This is possibly (most
likely?) a Thunderbird problem as the e-mails appear alright in Mutt,
but I was wondering if other people had noticed similar problems with
Thunderbird+git-format-patch+git-send-email and if they might have some
workarounds. Or, if someone might notice that I am just using incorrect
parameters for both commands.
These are the commands I used:
git format-patch --thread --attach -n origin..or2
git-send-email --no-chain-reply-to --to ffmpeg-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxx --from
takis.issaris@xxxxxxxxxxx --subject "[PATCH 00/31] Various Doxygen related
patches" --suppress-from --compose 00*patch
As far as I can figure, you don't want to use the --thread option to
git-format-patch when using git-send-email. However, I found
git-send-email confusing enough that I just finished writing my own script
to sit ontop of git-format-patch so I may be wrong ...
