I've sent a new version in <20220601195048.166397-1-damien@cassou.me>. I
hope I followed all recommendations. If I didn't, please tell me so I
can do better next time.

Can you please explain me what in git-send-email makes it easier to
apply the patches? I'm also interested in your process to apply patches
from your mua (notmuch in Emacs hopefully) to your git repository.

I'm sorry I completely forgot to have a look at the conventions before
sending.

done

I also don't like it. I think it focuses too much on what has changed
(something that could be inferred from the patch with a little tooling)
instead of why the code has changed this way (something only the author
can tell).
