From 967ab8efd7f294c05b57db600c4e548d7c4f8b2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Nieder Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2011 21:32:55 -0500 Subject: Documentation: publicize KMail hints for sending patches inline These hints are in git's private SubmittingPatches document but a wider audience might be interested. Move them to the "git format-patch" manpage. I'm not sure what gotchas these hints are meant to work around. They might be completely false.
