I think this paragraph is a bit *long*. How about
“ --resend adds "RESEND" to the subject prefix (producing "PATCH
RESEND" by default).
(I took this from description of `--rfc`.)
Probably modified to fit in with the other paragraphs.
Thanks for your feedback!
I also wasn't super happy with that paragraph, because I tried to be
as technically accurate as possible, but that unfortunately made the
wording a bit awkward. Though, I'm not really sure that your proposed
description is actually better, because the parenthesis should in
general be avoided, because they disrupt the flow. It also doesn't
use imperative mood.
Of course, I'll see to improve that paragraph.
Of course, add the description of the new --resend command-line option
to
the documentation for "git format-patch".
This paragraph can be dropped. ;) Adding documentation along with a new
feature doesn’t need to be called out.
Makes sense.
