I'm using the current 'master' branch so --cover-letter is there. Managed to miss it anyway. :) Hmm, do you send the 0000-cover-letter.patch with 'git send-email'? It seems that this cover letter don't get MIME headers when sent that way. Sending through 'mutt -H' it works fine but then the Message-Id needs to be copy-pasted manually to send-mail for the rest of the series (to have them appear as replies, that is). No problem with that. > OK, I will add it to the end of my long todo. Out of curiosity, do you > actually want something besides utf-8, or is this just to make us feel > feature complete? I mostly use (and promote) UTF-8 and now that I begin to understand how send-email works I can live with the current behaviour just fine. Don't take my feedback as complaining. :) In general my interests are in human languages and I have done quite a lot of work in different areas to make computers interact nicely with human languages. This is my interest in general level and I tend to report/fix problems when I notice them. From Git's point of view at the present moment we can probably say just like you did: "make us feel feature complete." Thanks for your work on this.
