This series fixes a bug that allows --rfc and -k options to be specified together when running "git format-patch". This bug was introduced about eight months ago, but it has remained undetected, presumably because of lacking test coverage. While fixing this bug, also add a test that covers this mutual exclusion, for future coverage.

This series also adds --resend as the new option for "git format-patch" that adds "RESEND" as a (sub)suffix to the patch subject prefix, which eventually produces "[PATCH RESEND]" as the default patch subject prefix. This subject prefix is commonly used on mailing lists to denote patches resent after they had attracted no attention for a while.
