Subject: How to send patch series without storing them to disk?
Message-ID: <490EC57E.4080200@gmail.com>

Hi,

I want to send patches like this:

  git format-patch --stdout --no-color -C --thread -n $oldrev..$newrev | ...send...

It seems git-send-email can't read email from stdin.


I tried to send one patch using git-send-email, it reported "Syntax: AUTH mechanism".
  git send-email --from <myemail> --to <my-another-email> \
                 --smtp-pass <mypass> --smtp-user <myaccount> \
                 --smtp-server <the-smtp-server> \
                 --smtp-encryption auth          \
                 0001-just-a-test.patch

The parameters about smtp are right, I tested with msmtp. What's wrong?

I have MIME::Base64 and Authen::SASL installed and the smtp server doesn't use
ssl and tls.
