[Linux] git send-email的使用

http://www.cnblogs.com/0616--ataozhijia/p/3830698.html

1. git send-email is included in an individual package, named "git-email":

$ sudo apt-get install git-email

2. Configure the SMTP server info after the installation:

$ git config --global sendemail.smtpserver smtp.gmail.com

$ git config --global sendemail.smtpserverport 587

只配上面两个就已经可以用了

$ git config --global sendemail.smtpencryption tls

$ git config --global sendemail.smtpuser 你的邮箱

3. Start a new branch to do any dev work:

$ dev_branch=fix-warning-for-string-format

$ git branch $dev_branch

$ git checkout $dev_branch

$ vim source.c

$ git add source.c

$ git commit -s -m "Add format strings for bb_error_msg_and_die"

4. Format a patch and send it out to the receiver:

$ git format-patch -C -n master..$dev_branch

$ git send-email --compose --no-chain-reply-to --suppress-from --to kernel@kernel.org 0001-*.patch
