Jay Soffian 0da43a685a send-email: fix nasty bug in ask() function
Commit 6e18251 (send-email: refactor and ensure prompting doesn't loop
forever) introduced an ask function, which unfortunately had a nasty
bug. This caused it not to accept anything but the default reply to the
"Who should the emails appear to be from?" prompt, and nothing but
ctrl-d to the "Who should the emails be sent to?" and "Message-ID to be
used as In-Reply-To for the first email?" prompts.

This commit corrects the issues and adds a test to confirm the fix.

Jay Soffian a61c0ffa44 send-email: ensure quoted addresses are rfc2047 encoded
sanitize_address assumes that quoted addresses (e.g., "first last"
<first.last@example.com) do not need rfc2047 encoding, but this is
not always the case.

For example, various places in send-email extract addresses using
parse_address_line. parse_address_line returns the addresses already
quoted (e.g., "first last" <first.last@example.com), but not rfc2047
encoded.

This patch makes sanitize_address stricter about what needs rfc2047
encoding and adds a test demonstrating where I noticed the problem.

Jay Soffian dc1460aa8d send-email: ask_default should apply to all emails, not just the first
Commit 6e18251 made the "Send this email?" prompt assume yes if confirm
= "inform" when it was unable to get a valid response. However, the
"yes" assumption only worked correctly for the first email. This commit
fixes the issue and confirms the fix by modifying the existing test for
the prompt to send multiple emails.

Attempting to prompt when the tty is closed (typically when running from

Jay Soffian 6e1825186b send-email: refactor and ensure prompting doesn't loop forever
Several places in send-email prompt for input, and will do so forever
when the input is EOF. This is poor behavior when send-email is run
unattended (say from cron).

This patch refactors the prompting to an ask() function which takes a
prompt, an optional default, and an optional regex to validate the
input. The function returns on EOF, or if a default is provided and the
user simply types return, or if the input passes the validating regex
(which accepts all input by default). The ask() function gives up after
10 tries in case of invalid input.

There are four callers of the function:

1) "Who should the emails appear to be from?" which provides a default
sender. Previously the user would have to type ctrl-d to accept the
default. Now the user can just hit return, or type ctrl-d.

2) "Who should the emails be sent to?". Previously this prompt passed a
second argument ("") to $term->readline() which was ignored. I believe
the intent was to allow the user to just hit return. Now the user
can do so, or type ctrl-d.

3) "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the first email?".
Previously this prompt passed a second argument (effectively undef) to
$term->readline() which was ignored. I believe the intent was the same
as for (2), to allow the user to just hit return. Now the user can do
so, or type ctrl-d.

4) "Send this email?". Previously this prompt would loop forever until
it got a valid reply. Now it stops prompting on EOF or a valid reply. In
the case where confirm = "inform", it now defaults to "y" on EOF or the
user hitting return, otherwise an invalid reply causes send-email to
terminate.

A followup patch adds tests for the new functionality.

Jay Soffian c1f2aa45b7 send-email: add --confirm option and configuration setting
send-email violates the principle of least surprise by automatically
cc'ing additional recipients without confirming this with the user.

This patch teaches send-email a --confirm option. It takes the
following values:

 --confirm=always   always confirm before sending
 --confirm=never    never confirm before sending
 --confirm=cc       confirm before sending when send-email has
                    automatically added addresses from the patch to
                    the Cc list
 --confirm=compose  confirm before sending the first message when
                    using --compose. (Needed to maintain backwards
                    compatibility with existing behavior.)
 --confirm=auto     'cc' + 'compose'

If sendemail.confirm is unconfigured, the option defaults to 'compose'
if any suppress-Cc related options have been used, otherwise it defaults
to 'auto'.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to introduce this patch such that it
helps new users without potentially annoying some existing users. We
attempt to mitigate the latter by:

 * Allowing the user to set 'git config sendemail.confirm never'
 * Allowing the user to say 'all' after the first prompt to not be
   prompted on remaining emails during the same invocation.
 * Telling the user about the 'sendemail.confirm' setting if it is
   unconfigured whenever we prompt due to Cc before sending.
 * Only prompting if no --suppress related options have been passed, as
   using such an option is likely to indicate an experienced send-email
   user.

There is a slight fib in message informing the user of the
sendemail.confirm setting and this is intentional. Setting 'auto'
differs from leaving sendemail.confirm unset in two ways: 1) 'auto'
obviously squelches the informational message; 2) 'auto' prompts when
the Cc list has been expanded even in the presence of a --suppress
related option, where leaving sendemail.confirm unset does not. This is
intentional to keep the message simple, and to avoid adding another
sendemail.confirm value ('auto-except-suppress'?).

Jay Soffian afe756c936 send-email: don't create temporary compose file until it is needed
Commit eed6ca7 caused a minor regression when it switched to using
tempfile() to generate the temporary compose file. Since tempfile()
creates the file at the time it generates the filename, zero-length
temporary files are being left behind unless --compose is used (in which
case the file is cleaned up).

This patch fixes the regression by not calling tempfile() to generate
the compose filename unless --compose is in use.

Jay Soffian 3531e2703d send-email: --suppress-cc improvements
Since 6564828 (git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient
mechanism., 2007-12-25) we can suppress automatic Cc generation
separately for each of the possible address sources.  However,
--suppress-cc=sob suppressed both SOB lines and body (but not header)
Cc lines, contrary to the name.

Change --suppress-cc=sob to mean only SOB lines, and add separate
choices 'bodycc' (body Cc lines) and 'body' (both 'sob' and 'bodycc').
The option --no-signed-off-by-cc now acts like --suppress-cc=sob,
which is not backwards compatible but matches the name of the option.

Also update the documentation and add a few tests.

Original patch by me. Revised by Thomas Rast, who contributed the
documentation and test updates.

Jay Soffian 5012699d98 send-email: handle multiple Cc addresses when reading mbox message
When git format-patch is given multiple --cc arguments, it generates a
Cc header that looks like:

 Cc: first@example.com,
     second@example.com,
     third@example.com

Before this commit, send-email was unable to handle such a message as it
did not handle folded header lines, nor multiple recipients in a Cc
line.

This patch:

- Unfolds header lines by pre-processing the header before extracting
  any of its fields.

- Handles Cc lines with multiple recipients.

- Adds use of Mail::Address if available for splitting Cc line and
  the "Who should the emails be sent to?" prompt", with fall back to
  existing split_addrs() function.

- Tests the new functionality and adds two tests for detecting whether
  "From:" appears correctly in message body when patch author differs
  from patch sender.

header, then we assume they know what they are doing and
don't add any headers.

Bryan Donlan 065096c2b5 git-send-email.perl: Handle shell metacharacters in $EDITOR properly
This fixes the git-send-perl semantics for launching an editor when
$GIT_EDITOR (or friends) contains shell metacharacters to match
launch_editor() in builtin-tag.c. If we use the current approach
(sh -c '$0 $@' "$EDITOR" files ...), we see it fails when $EDITOR has
shell metacharacters:

  $ sh -x -c '$0 $@' "$VISUAL" "foo"
  + "$FAKE_EDITOR" foo
  "$FAKE_EDITOR": 1: "$FAKE_EDITOR": not found

Whereas builtin-tag.c will invoke sh -c "$EDITOR \"$@\"".

Thus, this patch changes git-send-email.perl to use the same method as the
C utilities, and additionally updates t/t9001-send-email.sh to test for
this bug.

Miklos Vajna 5f8b9fcd03 git-send-email: add a new sendemail.cc configuration variable
Some projects prefer to always CC patches to a given mailing list. In
these cases, it's handy to configure that address once.

Frank Lichtenheld ad79c02451 send-email: Don't require to be called in a repository
We might not have some configuration variables available, but if the
user doesn't care about that, neither should we. Still use the
repository if it is available, though.
