While this second hunk here makes perfect sense to me, there is no explanation why we need to change `__git_find_last_on_cmdline ()`. It's already used with "--guess --no-guess" in another place, so I would think that it ought to work alright for this usecase, too. Or is it that the existing callsite of this function is buggy, too? If so, we should likely fix that in a separate patch together with a test.
Also, adding a test for git-send-email that exercises this new behaviour would be very much welcome, too.
