One of the problems you may encounter there is figuring out which machine
is going to send your mail.
I tried smtp.gmail.com, but that one requires tls and a password,
and git-send-email could not handle that "

From http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitTips.

Is this statemant still correct ?
Is msmtp the only solution for using git-send-mail with gmail? (tls +
autentication).

No, as of 34cc60ce2b48f6037997543ddbab1ed9903df4a8 you can use SSL and SMTP-Auth.

[sendemail]
        smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
        smtpuser = <user>@gmail.com
        smtppass = <password>
        smtpssl = true

Can you suggest changes to the documentation if these options are unclear?
