Off-topic. I wonder what people think about doing something like this patch. -- >8 -- send-email: detect and offer to skip backup files Diligent people save output from format-patch to files, proofread and edit them and then finally send the result out. If the resulting files are sent out with "git send-email 0*", this ends up sending backup files (e.g. 0001-X.patch.backup or 0001-X.patch~) left by their editors next to the final version. Sending them with "git send-email 0*.patch" (if format-patch was run with the standard suffix) would avoid such an embarrassment, but not everybody is careful. After collecting files to be sent (and sorting them if read from a directory), notice when the file being sent out has the same name as the previous file, plus some suffix (e.g. 0001-X.patch was sent, and we are looking at 0001-X.patch.backup or 0001-X.patch~), and the suffix begins with a non-alnum (e.g. ".backup" or "~") and ask if the user really wants to send it out. Once the user skips sending such a "backup" file, remember the suffix and stop asking the same question (e.g. after skipping 0001-X.patch~, skip 0002-Y.patch~ without asking). git-send-email.perl | 40 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 40 insertions(+) diff --git a/git-send-email.perl b/git-send-email.perl index d356901..74ed01a 100755 --- a/git-send-email.perl +++ b/git-send-email.perl @@ -621,6 +621,8 @@ sub is_format_patch_arg { push @files, $repo->command('format-patch', '-o', tempdir(CLEANUP => 1), @rev_list_opts); } +@files = handle_backup_files(@files); + if ($validate) { foreach my $f (@files) { unless (-p $f) { @@ -1726,6 +1728,44 @@ sub validate_patch { return; } +sub handle_backup { + my ($last, $lastlen, $file, $known_suffix) = @_; + my ($suffix, $skip); + + $skip = 0; + if (defined $last && + ($lastlen < length($file)) && + (substr($file, 0, $lastlen) eq $last) && + ($suffix = substr($file, $lastlen)) !~ /^[a-z0-9]/i) { + if (defined $known_suffix && $suffix eq $known_suffix) { + print "Skipping $file with backup suffix '$known_suffix'.\n"; + $skip = 1; + } else { + my $answer = ask("Do you really want to send $file?
