This is a bit underspecified. What should the subject be? Do you want to have something like --cover-letter but placing the messages after 00/NN in an attachment?

It seems easiest to write a small filter in Perl, but it could be added as an option to git-format-patch, maybe something like --cover-letter=attach-all.
