I'd expect it to send out two emails.  Why should 'git send-email'
check the supplied command-line arguments for duplicates?  I can't
think of a usecase for it. It's a simple Perl script that mails out
the mbox files specified on the command-line.  Could you tell us your
usecase?  If it's a shell script that calls 'git send-email' with
duplicate arguments, I think you should fix the shell script, not 'git
send-email'.

Thanks.
