So you want to send the stuff twice? Ouch. Seriously: We can mail patches, and we can re-base our changes. Anything that's not covered by this is inherently complicated, such that specifying the starting point(s) of a git-send-pack-mail invocation needs to be handled by a program, else we *will* get *lots* of pilot errors. Surprise: We already have a solution: host your archive someplace and let git push+fetch handle everything. -- Matthias Urlichs | {M:U} IT Design @ m-u-it.de | smurf@smurf.noris.de Disclaimer: The quote was selected randomly.
