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'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 upsetting some existing users. We attempt to mitigate the latter by:
* Allowing the user to "git config sendemail.config 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 whenever they use "all" * Only prompting if no --suppress related options have been passed, as using such an option is likely to indicate an experienced send-email user.
Signed-off-by: Jay Soffian <jaysoffian@gmail.com> --- Changes from v1:
- Added no-confirm tests, and put them early to prevent the rest of the tests from potentially hanging. Note if one of these tests fails then we exit t9001-send-email.sh immediately.
- Added verification of the --confirm setting. (I had done this previously but somehow failed to stage it.)
- Added additional language to the commit messsage in an attempt to provide justification for the change in default behavior.
- When the user specifies "all" in response to a confirm prompt, we hint them about how to use "sendemail.confirm" config setting.
