[PATCH 0/2] git-send-email improvements

The following two patches document the git-send-email aliases coniguration variables, and add some more config variables to make usage a little easier. Please consider applying.

Wishing to implement an email aliases file, I found that they were already implmented. Document them for the next user.

[PATCH 2/2] git-send-email: configurable bcc and chain-reply-to

Chain-reply-to is a personal perference, and is unlikely to change from patchset to patchset. Similarly, bcc is likely to have the same values every invocation is one likes to bcc oneself.

So, allow both to be set via configuration variables.
