Commit Message

Michael Strawbridge Jan. 20, 2023, 1:24 a.m. UTC
To allow further flexibility in the Git hook, the SMTP header
information of the email which git-send-email intends to send, is now
passed as the 2nd argument to the sendemail-validate hook.

As an example, this can be useful for acting upon keywords in the
subject or specific email addresses.

This maybe clearer:

Good idea - I've fixed it locally.

Good catch.  It was a matter of spaces and tabs combining that wasn't
easy to see.

I was reading the list of stalled topics in the periodical "What's
cooking" report and noticed that this topic has been marked as
"Expecting a hopefully minor and final reroll." for full three
months after we saw this message.  Should we be waiting more?

Thanks.

Thanks Junio for the reminder--I was wondering the same thing not

We'll re-roll it and submit it for inclusion.
