Perlcritic does not want to see the trailing pipe in the two-args
form of open(), i.e.
open my $fh, "$cmd \Q$file\E |";
If $cmd were a single-token command name, it would make a lot more
sense to use four-or-more-args form "open FILEHANDLE,MODE,CMD,ARGS"
to avoid shell from expanding metacharacters in $file, but we do
expect multi-word string in $to_cmd and $cc_cmd to be expanded by
the shell, so we cannot rewrite it to
open my $fh, "-|", $cmd, $file;
for extra safety. At least, by using this in the three-arg form:
open my $fh, "-|", "$cmd \Q$file\E";
we can silence Perlcritic, even though we do not gain much safety by
doing so.

The subroutine check_file_rev_conflict() is called from two places,
both of which expects to pass a single scalar variable and see if
that can be interpreted as a pathname or a revision name. It is
defined with a function prototype ($) to force a scalar context
while evaluating the arguments at the calling site but it does not
help the current calling sites. The only effect it has is to hurt
future calling sites that may want to build an argument list in an
array variable and call it as check_file_rev_confict(@args).
Drop the misleading prototype, as Perlcritic suggests.
While at it, rename the function to avoid new call sites unaware of
this change arising and add a comment clarifying what this function
is for.

All the callers of "ask", "extract_valid_address", and "validate_patch"
subroutines assign the return values from them to a single scalar:
$var = subr(...);
and "return undef;" in these subroutine can safely be turned into a
simpler "return;". Doing so will also future-proof a new caller that
mistakenly does this:
@foo = ask(...);
if (@foo) { ... we got an answer ... } else { ... we did not ... }
Note that we leave "return undef;" in validate_address on purpose,
even though Perlcritic may complain. The primary "return" site of
the function returns whatever is in the scalar variable $address, so
it is pointless to change only the other "return undef;" to "return".
The caller must be prepared to see an array with a single undef as
the return value from this subroutine anyway.

Currently we keep getting questions even when the user has properly
configured his full name and password:
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>]
And once a question pops up, other questions are turned on. This is
annoying.
The reason it's safe to avoid this question is because currently the
script fails completely when the author (or committer) is not correct,
so we won't even be reaching this point in the code.
The scenarios, and the current situation:
1) No information at all, no fully qualified domain name
fatal: empty ident name (for <felipec@nysa.(none)>) not allowed
2) Only full name
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'felipec@nysa.(none)')
3) Full name + fqdm
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipec@nysa.felipec.org>]
4) Full name + EMAIL
Who should the emails appear to be from?
[Felipe Contreras <felipe.contreras@gmail.com>]
5) User configured
6) GIT_COMMITTER
7) GIT_AUTHOR
All these are the same as 4)
After this patch:
1) 2) won't change: git send-email would still die
4) 5) 6) 7) will change: git send-email won't ask the user
This is good, that's what we would expect, because the identity is
explicit.
3) will change: git send-email won't ask the user
This is bad, because we will try with an address such as
'felipec@nysa.felipec.org', which is most likely not what the user
wants, but the user will get warned by default (confirm=auto), and if
not, most likely the sending won't work, which the user would readily
note and fix.
The worst possible scenario is that such mail address does work, and the
user sends an email from that address unintentionally, when in fact the
user expected to correct that address in the prompt. This is a very,
very, very unlikely scenario, with many dependencies:
1) No configured user.name/user.email
2) No specified $EMAIL
3) No configured sendemail.from
4) No specified --from argument
5) A fully qualified domain name
6) A full name in the geckos field
7) A sendmail configuration that allows sending from this domain name
8) confirm=never, or
8.1) confirm configuration not hitting, or
8.2) Getting the error, not being aware of it
9) The user expecting to correct this address in the prompt
In a more likely scenario where 7) is not the case (can't send from
nysa.felipec.org), the user will simply see the mail was not sent
properly, and fix the problem.
The much more likely scenario though, is where 5) is not the case
(nysa.(none)), and git send-email will fail right away like it does now.
So the likelihood of this affecting anybody seriously is very very slim,
and the chances of this affecting somebody slightly are still very
small. The vast majority, if not all, of git users won't be affected
negatively, and a lot will benefit from this.

In the fallback check, used when Email::Valid is not available, the
extract_valid_address() uses $1 without checking for success of matching
regex. The $1 variable may still hold the result of previous match,
which is the address when email address was in '<>' or be undefined
otherwise.
Now if match fails undefined value is always returned to indicate error.
The same value is used by Email::Valid->address() in that case.
Previously 'foo@bar' address was rejected by Email::Valid and fallback,
but '<foo@bar>' was rejected by Email::Valid, but accepted by fallback.

However, git-send-email refuses to pick up such an invalid address

Fortunately, our interactive prompter already has input validation

The RFC2047 unquoting, used to parse email addresses in From and Cc
headers, is broken in several ways:
* It erroneously substitutes ' ' for '_' in *the whole* header, even
outside the quoted field. [Noticed by Christoph.]
* It is too liberal in its matching, and happily matches the start
of one quoted chunk against the end of another, or even just
something that looks like such an end. [Noticed by Junio.]
* It fundamentally cannot cope with encodings that are not a
superset of ASCII, nor several (incompatible) encodings in the
same header.
This patch fixes the first two by doing a more careful decoding of
the outer quoting (e.g. "=AB" to represent an octet whose value is
0xAB). Fixing the fundamental issues is left for a future, more
intrusive, patch.

cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30) broke
the expansion of aliases.
This was caused by treating %config_path_settings, newly introduced in
said patch, like %config_bool_settings instead of like %config_settings.
Copy from %config_settings, making it more readable.
While at it add basic test for expansion of aliases, and for path
expansion, which would catch this error.
Nb. there were a few issues that were responsible for this error:
1. %config_bool_settings and %config_settings despite similar name have
different semantic.
%config_bool_settings values are arrays where the first element is
(reference to) the variable to set, and second element is default
value... which admittedly is a bit cryptic. More readable if more
verbose option would be to use hash reference, e.g.:
my %config_bool_settings = (
"thread" => { variable => \$thread, default => 1},
[...]
%config_settings values are either either reference to scalar variable
or reference to array. In second case it means that option (or config
option) is multi-valued. BTW. this is similar to what Getopt::Long does.
2. In cec5dae (use new Git::config_path() for aliasesfile, 2011-09-30)
the setting "aliasesfile" was moved from %config_settings to newly
introduced %config_path_settings. But the loop that parses settings
from %config_path_settings was copy'n'pasted *wrongly* from
%config_bool_settings instead of from %config_settings.
It looks like cec5dae author cargo-culted this change...

git send-email was not authenticating properly when communicating over

everywhere where system accounts are used.
The problem (only?) exists when libauthen-sasl-cyrus-perl

makes Authen::SASL use the perl implementation which works
better.
The solution is based on this forum thread:

When an initial --in-reply-to is supplied, make it apply only to the
first message; --[no-]chain-reply-to setting are honored by second and

the same name behaves.
Moreover, when $initial_reply_to is asked to the user interactively it
is asked as the "Message-ID to be used as In-Reply-To for the _first_
email", this makes the user think that the second and subsequent
patches are not using it but are considered as replies to the first
message or chained according to the --[no-]chain-reply setting.
Look at the v2 series in the illustration to see what the new behavior
ensures:
(before the patch) | (after the patch)
[PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did... | [PATCH 0/2] Here is what I did...
[PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests | [PATCH 1/2] Clean up and tests

[PATCH v2 2/3] New tests | [PATCH v2 2/3] New tests

It's a minor annoyance when you take the painstaking time to setup To:
headers for each patch in a large series, and then go out to send the
series with git-send-email and watch git ignore the To: headers in the
patch files.
Therefore, always add To: headers from a patch file to the To: headers
for that message. Keep the prompt for the blanket To: header so as to
not break scripts (and user expectations). This means even if a patch
has a To: header, git will prompt for the To: address. Otherwise, we'll
need to introduce interface breakage to either request the header for
each patch missing a To: header or default the header to whatever To:
address is found first (be it in a patch or from user input). Both of
these options don't seem very obvious/useful.

The -w sets warnings for all code that interpreter runs, while "use

As an auxiliary benefit it's now possible to build Git with:

Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and
pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using
useful features introduced in the 5.8 release.
The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance
release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old.
All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or
a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX
Solaris and Tru64 systems.

Add the ability to use a command line --to-cmd=cmd
to create the list of "To:" addresses.
Used a shared routine for --cc-cmd and --to-cmd.
Did not use IPC::Open2, leaving that for Ævar if
ever he decides to fix the other bugs he might find.
