* send-pull-request: Use current date in mail headersDarren Hart2010-12-211-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Some users experience problems viewing the pull requests as a sequential mail series due to the script using the git commit date for the patches and today's date for the cover letter. Address this by renaming the email Date: header to Old-Date: and adding a new Date: header with a current timestamp.

* git-pull: add send-pull-request scriptDarren Hart2010-11-101-0/+133
send-pull-request facilitates sending pull requests generated by create-pull-request. The primary role of this script is to harvest email addresses from the patches and send them out. A working installation of sendmail (exim, postfix, msmtp, etc.) is required to use this script. You can explicitly specify To addresses with the -t option. As this can be tedious, the -a option will scan all the patches for To, CC, and *-by lines and the collected addresses to the To and CC headers for each patch. This script uses an identical recipients list for every patch, including the cover letter. This is by design. Existing tools will auto-generate the CC header for individual patches, but since they don't apply it to the other patches, the recipients can lack the necessary context to provide a meaningful review. This is especially true of the cover letter. The pull directory generated by the create-pull-request script is specified using the -p option.
