If you aren't -in one of those bufffers, you will be prompted to enter a file path in -the minibuffer. - -Once a message has been created, your cursor will automatically be -placed in the appropriate location. This means that if the subject or -"to" address is empty, the cursor will automatically be there already. - -By default, the built-in `message-mail` function will be used for -composing the message. You can change this to something else by -customizing the `git-email-compose-email-function`. - -When you invoke `git-email-format-patch`, you will prompted in the -minibuffer for extra arguments to give `git format-patch`. Some common -arguments will be displayed in your completion framework. If you want -to select multiple options, separate them with `,` or whatever the value -of `crm-separator` is. You can add options to the list of candidates by -customizing `git-email-format-patch-extra-args`. -`git-email-format-patch-default-args` contains arguments automatically -passed to `git format-patch` if no extra arguments are given. - -After you have entered extra arguments, the minibuffer will prompt you -to select the *base* commit for your patches. That is, a patch will be -generated for the changes between the *base* commit and the current -HEAD. Selecting the second candidate in the list is equivalent to -typing `HEAD^1` in the shell. - -When the revision has been selected, patches will be generated and you -will be greeted with a message buffer containing a patch, just like -with `git-email-send-email`. By default, the generated patches will be -deleted, if you don not like this behaviour, call -`git-email-format-patch` with a prefix argument (C-u). - -You can see all the customizable variables running `M-x =customize-group` -`<RET> =git-email <RET>`. - - -<a id="org107026f"></a> - -## Integration with other packages - -`git-email` offers minor modes for Gnus and Notmuch, these minor modes -will just configure some variables for you and provide any extra -functionality as of right now. - -There is also integration with magit in the `git-email-magit.el` -library. This will faciliate the transient library, you can send a -patch from the magit status buffer by pressing `W c s`. - - -<a id="org11be6c6"></a> - -# Installation - -You can install it by cloning this repo and adding `git-email.el` to your `load-path`. - - -<a id="org935ef62"></a> - -# Related packages - -- [piem](https://git.kyleam.com/piem/) - gluing together public-inbox archives and git - - -<a id="orgba80d0d"></a> - # Contributing - You can send patches and bug reports to the [git-email-devel](https://lists.sr.ht/~yoctocell/git-email-devel) mailing list. - -**Note:** The README.md is generated from README.org - |
