<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Takes the patches given on the command line and emails them out.
Patches can be specified as files, directories (which will send all
files in the directory), or directly as a revision list. In the
last case, any format accepted by <a href="git-format-patch.html">git-format-patch(1)</a> can
be passed to git send-email, as well as options understood by
<a href="git-format-patch.html">git-format-patch(1)</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The header of the email is configurable via command-line options. If not
specified on the command line, the user will be prompted with a ReadLine
enabled interface to provide the necessary information.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>There are two formats accepted for patch files:</p>
</div>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>mbox format files</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This is what <a href="git-format-patch.html">git-format-patch(1)</a> generates. Most headers and MIME
formatting are ignored.</p>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<p>The original format used by Greg Kroah-Hartman’s <em>send_lots_of_email.pl</em>
script</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This format expects the first line of the file to contain the "Cc:" value
and the "Subject:" of the message as the second line.</p>

<h3 id="_composing">Composing</h3>
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">--annotate</dt>
<dd>
<p>Review and edit each patch you’re about to send. Default is the value
of <code>sendemail.annotate</code>. See the CONFIGURATION section for
<code>sendemail.multiEdit</code>.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--bcc=<address>,…​</dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify a "Bcc:" value for each email. Default is the value of
<code>sendemail.bcc</code>.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This option may be specified multiple times.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--cc=<address>,…​</dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify a starting "Cc:" value for each email.
Default is the value of <code>sendemail.cc</code>.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This option may be specified multiple times.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--compose</dt>
<dd>
<p>Invoke a text editor (see GIT_EDITOR in <a href="git-var.html">git-var(1)</a>)
to edit an introductory message for the patch series.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>When <code>--compose</code> is used, git send-email will use the From, To, Cc, Bcc,
Subject, Reply-To, and In-Reply-To headers specified in the message. If
the body of the message (what you type after the headers and a blank
line) only contains blank (or Git: prefixed) lines, the summary won’t be
sent, but the headers mentioned above will be used unless they are
removed.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Missing From or In-Reply-To headers will be prompted for.</p>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>See the CONFIGURATION section for <code>sendemail.multiEdit</code>.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--from=<address></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify the sender of the emails. If not specified on the command line,
the value of the <code>sendemail.from</code> configuration option is used. If
neither the command-line option nor <code>sendemail.from</code> are set, then the
user will be prompted for the value. The default for the prompt will be
the value of GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT, or GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT if that is not
set, as returned by "git var -l".</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--reply-to=<address></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify the address where replies from recipients should go to.
Use this if replies to messages should go to another address than what
is specified with the --from parameter.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--in-reply-to=<identifier></dt>
<dd>
<p>Make the first mail (or all the mails with <code>--no-thread</code>) appear as a
reply to the given Message-ID, which avoids breaking threads to
provide a new patch series.
The second and subsequent emails will be sent as replies according to
the <code>--</code>[<code>no-</code>]<code>chain-reply-to</code> setting.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>So for example when <code>--thread</code> and <code>--no-chain-reply-to</code> are specified, the
second and subsequent patches will be replies to the first one like in the
illustration below where [<code>PATCH</code> <code>v2</code> <code>0/3</code>] is in reply to [<code>PATCH</code> <code>0/2</code>]:</p>
</div>
<div class="literalblock">

<p>Only necessary if --compose is also set. If --compose
is not set, this will be prompted for.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--subject=<string></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify the initial subject of the email thread.
Only necessary if --compose is also set. If --compose
is not set, this will be prompted for.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--to=<address>,…​</dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify the primary recipient of the emails generated. Generally, this
will be the upstream maintainer of the project involved. Default is the
value of the <code>sendemail.to</code> configuration value; if that is unspecified,
and --to-cmd is not specified, this will be prompted for.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>This option may be specified multiple times.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--8bit-encoding=<encoding></dt>
<dd>
<p>When encountering a non-ASCII message or subject that does not
declare its encoding, add headers/quoting to indicate it is
encoded in <encoding>. Default is the value of the
<em>sendemail.assume8bitEncoding</em>; if that is unspecified, this
will be prompted for if any non-ASCII files are encountered.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Note that no attempts whatsoever are made to validate the encoding.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--compose-encoding=<encoding></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify encoding of compose message. Default is the value of the
<em>sendemail.composeEncoding</em>; if that is unspecified, UTF-8 is assumed.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--transfer-encoding=(7bit|8bit|quoted-printable|base64|auto)</dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify the transfer encoding to be used to send the message over SMTP.
7bit will fail upon encountering a non-ASCII message. quoted-printable
can be useful when the repository contains files that contain carriage
returns, but makes the raw patch email file (as saved from a MUA) much
harder to inspect manually. base64 is even more fool proof, but also
even more opaque. auto will use 8bit when possible, and quoted-printable
otherwise.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Default is the value of the <code>sendemail.transferEncoding</code> configuration
value; if that is unspecified, default to <code>auto</code>.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--xmailer</dt>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-xmailer</dt>
<dd>
<p>Add (or prevent adding) the "X-Mailer:" header. By default,
the header is added, but it can be turned off by setting the
<code>sendemail.xmailer</code> configuration variable to <code>false</code>.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_sending">Sending</h3>
<div class="dlist">
<dl>
<dt class="hdlist1">--envelope-sender=<address></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify the envelope sender used to send the emails.
This is useful if your default address is not the address that is
subscribed to a list. In order to use the <em>From</em> address, set the
value to "auto". If you use the sendmail binary, you must have
suitable privileges for the -f parameter. Default is the value of the
<code>sendemail.envelopeSender</code> configuration variable; if that is
unspecified, choosing the envelope sender is left to your MTA.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--sendmail-cmd=<command></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify a command to run to send the email. The command should
be sendmail-like; specifically, it must support the <code>-i</code> option.
The command will be executed in the shell if necessary. Default
is the value of <code>sendemail.sendmailCmd</code>. If unspecified, and if
--smtp-server is also unspecified, git-send-email will search
for <code>sendmail</code> in <code>/usr/sbin</code>, <code>/usr/lib</code> and $PATH.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-encryption=<encryption></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specify in what way encrypting begins for the SMTP connection.
Valid values are <em>ssl</em> and <em>tls</em>. Any other value reverts to plain
(unencrypted) SMTP, which defaults to port 25.
Despite the names, both values will use the same newer version of TLS,
but for historic reasons have these names. <em>ssl</em> refers to "implicit"
encryption (sometimes called SMTPS), that uses port 465 by default.
<em>tls</em> refers to "explicit" encryption (often known as STARTTLS),
that uses port 25 by default. Other ports might be used by the SMTP
server, which are not the default. Commonly found alternative port for
<em>tls</em> and unencrypted is 587. You need to check your provider’s
documentation or your server configuration to make sure
for your own case. Default is the value of <code>sendemail.smtpEncryption</code>.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-domain=<FQDN></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specifies the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) used in the
HELO/EHLO command to the SMTP server. Some servers require the
FQDN to match your IP address. If not set, git send-email attempts
to determine your FQDN automatically. Default is the value of
<code>sendemail.smtpDomain</code>.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-auth=<mechanisms></dt>
<dd>
<p>Whitespace-separated list of allowed SMTP-AUTH mechanisms. This setting
forces using only the listed mechanisms. Example:</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>$ git send-email --smtp-auth="PLAIN LOGIN GSSAPI" ...</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>If at least one of the specified mechanisms matches the ones advertised by the
SMTP server and if it is supported by the utilized SASL library, the mechanism
is used for authentication. If neither <em>sendemail.smtpAuth</em> nor <code>--smtp-auth</code>
is specified, all mechanisms supported by the SASL library can be used. The
special value <em>none</em> maybe specified to completely disable authentication
independently of <code>--smtp-user</code></p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-pass[=<password>]</dt>
<dd>
<p>Password for SMTP-AUTH. The argument is optional: If no
argument is specified, then the empty string is used as
the password. Default is the value of <code>sendemail.smtpPass</code>,
however <code>--smtp-pass</code> always overrides this value.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>Furthermore, passwords need not be specified in configuration files
or on the command line. If a username has been specified (with
<code>--smtp-user</code> or a <code>sendemail.smtpUser</code>), but no password has been
specified (with <code>--smtp-pass</code> or <code>sendemail.smtpPass</code>), then
a password is obtained using <em>git-credential</em>.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--no-smtp-auth</dt>
<dd>
<p>Disable SMTP authentication. Short hand for <code>--smtp-auth=none</code></p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-server=<host></dt>
<dd>
<p>If set, specifies the outgoing SMTP server to use (e.g.
<code>smtp.example.com</code> or a raw IP address). If unspecified, and if
<code>--sendmail-cmd</code> is also unspecified, the default is to search
for <code>sendmail</code> in <code>/usr/sbin</code>, <code>/usr/lib</code> and $PATH if such a
program is available, falling back to <code>localhost</code> otherwise.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>For backward compatibility, this option can also specify a full pathname
of a sendmail-like program instead; the program must support the <code>-i</code>
option. This method does not support passing arguments or using plain
command names. For those use cases, consider using <code>--sendmail-cmd</code>
instead.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-server-port=<port></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specifies a port different from the default port (SMTP
servers typically listen to smtp port 25, but may also listen to
submission port 587, or the common SSL smtp port 465);
symbolic port names (e.g. "submission" instead of 587)
are also accepted. The port can also be set with the
<code>sendemail.smtpServerPort</code> configuration variable.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-server-option=<option></dt>
<dd>
<p>If set, specifies the outgoing SMTP server option to use.
Default value can be specified by the <code>sendemail.smtpServerOption</code>
configuration option.</p>
<div class="paragraph">
<p>The --smtp-server-option option must be repeated for each option you want
to pass to the server. Likewise, different lines in the configuration files
must be used for each option.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-ssl</dt>
<dd>
<p>Legacy alias for <em>--smtp-encryption ssl</em>.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-ssl-cert-path</dt>
<dd>
<p>Path to a store of trusted CA certificates for SMTP SSL/TLS
certificate validation (either a directory that has been processed
by <em>c_rehash</em>, or a single file containing one or more PEM format
certificates concatenated together: see verify(1) -CAfile and
-CApath for more information on these). Set it to an empty string
to disable certificate verification. Defaults to the value of the
<code>sendemail.smtpSSLCertPath</code> configuration variable, if set, or the
backing SSL library’s compiled-in default otherwise (which should
be the best choice on most platforms).</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-user=<user></dt>
<dd>
<p>Username for SMTP-AUTH. Default is the value of <code>sendemail.smtpUser</code>;
if a username is not specified (with <code>--smtp-user</code> or <code>sendemail.smtpUser</code>),
then authentication is not attempted.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--smtp-debug=(0|1)</dt>
<dd>
<p>Enable (1) or disable (0) debug output. If enabled, SMTP
commands and replies will be printed. Useful to debug TLS
connection and authentication problems.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--batch-size=<num></dt>
<dd>
<p>Some email servers (e.g. smtp.163.com) limit the number emails to be
sent per session (connection) and this will lead to a failure when
sending many messages. With this option, send-email will disconnect after
sending $<num> messages and wait for a few seconds (see --relogin-delay)
and reconnect, to work around such a limit. You may want to
use some form of credential helper to avoid having to retype
your password every time this happens. Defaults to the
<code>sendemail.smtpBatchSize</code> configuration variable.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="hdlist1">--relogin-delay=<int></dt>
<dd>
<p>Waiting $<int> seconds before reconnecting to SMTP server. Used together
with --batch-size option. Defaults to the <code>sendemail.smtpReloginDelay</code>
configuration variable.</p>

<p>If this is set, the In-Reply-To and References headers will be
added to each email sent. Whether each mail refers to the
previous email (<code>deep</code> threading per <em>git format-patch</em>
wording) or to the first email (<code>shallow</code> threading) is
governed by "--[no-]chain-reply-to".</p>

default to --thread.</p>

<p>It is up to the user to ensure that no In-Reply-To header already
exists when <em>git send-email</em> is asked to add it (especially note that
<em>git format-patch</em> can be configured to do the threading itself).
Failure to do so may not produce the expected result in the
recipient’s MUA.</p>

<p>Use the mailmap file (see <a href="gitmailmap.html">gitmailmap(5)</a>) to map all

mailmap data specific to git-send-email may be provided using the
<code>sendemail.mailmap.file</code> or <code>sendemail.mailmap.blob</code> configuration
values. Defaults to <code>sendemail.mailmap</code>.</p>
