git-publish

git-publish handles repetitive and time-consuming details of managing patch email submission. It works with individual patches as well as patch series and has support for pull request emails. Each revision is stored as a git tag including the cover letter (if any). This makes it easy to refer back to previous revisions of a patch. Numbering is handled automatically and the To:/Cc: email addresses are remembered across revisions to save you retyping them. Many projects have conventions for submitting patches. It is possible to encode them as a .gitpublish file and hooks/ scripts. This automatically uses the right settings and can run a coding style checker or linting tools before emails are sent.
