[PATCH] git-send-email: handle email address with quoted comma

From
WFWu Fengguang <fengguang.wu@intel.com>
Date
Dec 19, 2008, 03:40 UTC
Message-ID
<1229658012-9240-1-git-send-email-fengguang.wu@intel.com>
Correctly handle email addresses containing quoted commas, e.g.
	"Zhu, Yi" <yi.zhu@intel.com>, "Li, Shaohua" <shaohua.li@intel.com>
Here the commas inside the double quotes are NOT email separators.
