Moving that file makes sense, I'll have a look at that, and do that as well when I fix this patch. After a first look at it though, I was surprised to learn that git send-email actually wont work outside a repository. Ok, I can't really see any workflow where git send-email is called from outside a git repository, but at the same time I don't see why is should not be possible. Are there any special reason for this?
