Hi Guys,

I am facing a strange issue with git send-email, with cccmd and was
looking for some help.

I am using it with Linux Kernel..

I used get-maintainers today to submit few patches for OPP framework
and that is defined as below in MAINTAINERS:

OPERATING PERFORMANCE POINTS (OPP)
M:      Viresh Kumar <vireshk@kernel.org>
M:      Nishanth Menon <nm@ti.com>
M:      Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>
L:      linux-pm@vger.kernel.org
S:      Maintained
T:      git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vireshk/pm.git
F:      drivers/base/power/opp/
F:      include/linux/pm_opp.h
F:      Documentation/power/opp.txt
F:      Documentation/devicetree/bindings/opp/


The parenthesis in the subsystem-name causes the cc list to look like:

Cc: linaro-kernel@lists.linaro.org,
linux-pm@vger.kernel.org,
Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org>,
Krzysztof Kozlowski <k.kozlowski@samsung.com>,
Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>,
Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>,
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list),
linux-pm@vger.kernel.org) (open list:OPERATING PERFORMANCE POINTS
(OPP),
Nishanth Menon <nm@ti.com>,
Pavel Machek <pavel@ucw.cz>,
Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>,
Viresh Kumar <vireshk@kernel.org>


Look at the second linux-pm entry here, it adds a ')' at the end of
the list's address and removes it from the end of the line.

And so that becomes an invalid address to git-send-email.

Dropping () from the subsystem name fixes it though..

The output of get_maintainers looks fine, but when its being used by
putting following into .gitconfig:

[sendemail]
        cccmd = scripts/get_maintainers


it doesn't work well..
