here the problem is that I manually sent the 0/7 as the initial mail, and passed its msg-id into --in-reply-to switch of git-send-email. but I did not specified the brackets, and those were not added, meaning that the reference was bad formatted.

I don't know where your other problems come from. What I know for sure is that I will write my own git-send-email version, with less perl, and less broken features, because the two first try I had with git-send-email were quite inconclusive, doing all *but* what I wanted them to do.

if it's not too crude, I will consider submit it to the list as a possible replacement/competitor for git-send-email.
