Judging from the source, this is not a default value that you can override: any recipients listed in sendemail.cc configuration(s) are always added to the Cc list. The same goes for --bcc and sendemail.bcc however, which uses the exact same formulation. Maybe something like You can also add Cc recipients via 'sendemail.cc' configuration settings. would clarify? -- Thomas Rast trast@{inf,student}.ethz.ch ``` ## Markus Heidelberg, 2008-12-29 13:29 Subject: Re: [PATCH] doc/git-send-email: mention sendemail.cc config variable Message-ID: <200812291429.01822.markus.heidelberg@web.de> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/200812291429.01822.markus.heidelberg%40web.de In-Reply-To: <200812291400.08924.trast@student.ethz.ch> ``` Thomas Rast, 29.12.2008: > Markus Heidelberg wrote: > > Specify a starting "Cc:" value for each email. > > + Default is the value of 'sendemail.cc'. > > + > > The --cc option must be repeated for each user you want on the cc list. > > Judging from the source, this is not a default value that you can > override: any recipients listed in sendemail.cc configuration(s) are > always added to the Cc list.

OK, and --to and sendemail.to is also affected. > Maybe something like > > You can also add Cc recipients via 'sendemail.cc' configuration > settings. > > would clarify? It is already in next, I think a following patch should be against next now, shouldn't it?

Surely, and thanks. If you look at the output of $ git log --first-parent origin/master..origin/next You will find the tip of mh/maint-sendmail-cc-doc topic branch is at bd7c6e7 (doc/git-send-email: mention sendemail.cc config variable, 2008-12-29). I'll apply any follow-up patch to the topic on top of that commit, and then merge the result to 'next' (and 'master'/'maint' when the result is ready). In rare cases when there are other topics in 'next' that touch vicinity of the code you are modifying, a patch made against 'next' may not apply cleanly to the topic, but I'll wiggle it to apply anyway (that is what the maintainers do), so it would certainly be nicer if you sent a patch to the tip of the topic you are updating, but there is no need to worry about such conflicts too much. ``` ## Markus Heidelberg, 2009-01-01 23:40 Subject: Re: [PATCH] doc/git-send-email: mention sendemail.cc config variable Message-ID: <200901020040.41399.markus.heidelberg@web.de> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/200901020040.41399.markus.heidelberg%40web.de In-Reply-To: <200812291400.08924.trast@student.ethz.ch> ``` Thomas Rast, 29.12.2008: > Markus Heidelberg wrote: > > Specify a starting "Cc:" value for each email. > > + Default is the value of 'sendemail.cc'. > > + > > The --cc option must be repeated for each user you want on the cc list. > > Judging from the source, this is not a default value that you can > override: any recipients listed in sendemail.cc configuration(s) are > always added to the Cc list.

I just tested it with --dry-run: the command line options for all three header lines (to cc bcc) override the corresponding config settings. So the formulation is correct: the settings are only default values.
