Subject: Did something with format-patch or send-email break?
Date: Sat, 08 Jun 2024 17:22:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87jzizt01a.fsf@meson> (raw)

I’m not sure of the precise mechanism employed, but I believe that 
that in the past, if I ran `git format-patch' and `git 
send-email', it would send an email to the right place.  This is 
implied by the manual, which doesn’t mention a patch submission 
email address, except for an issue number address when sending a 
patch series.

This doesn’t seem to work anymore; the output of `git 
format-patch' has no To: header populated, so `git send-email' 
asks me where:

    meson!ieure:~/Projects/guix/staging$ guix describe

    0001-changes.patch
    To whom should the emails be sent (if anyone)?   C-c C-c

    meson!ieure:~/Projects/guix/staging$

Reproduced on Guix System, Guix on Debian (which the above output 
is from), and someone in #guix also reproduced it.

Is it broken?  Am I missing one of the numerous intricate fiddly 
bits of setup to make email patch flow work?  The manual’s "The 
Perfect Setup" section only mentions Geiser and yasnippet setup, 
which isn’t relevant to this.

Thanks,

  — Ian
