Add a comment showing how to include a web link (i.e. gitweb/cgit) and a patch in the email that is sent for each pushed commit. --- The quoting was tricky enough that it's worth documenting. At first I wanted to put \n\n in the printf, but to do so would have meant using \\\\n\\\\n, and in the end, the pair of "echo" statements seemed better.

FYI, I did this for glibc.git:
