pyonji is a useful
tool to send patches to mailing lists, to contribute to projects hosted
on sr.ht for example. It is a
friendly TUI alternative to using git-send-email directly,
but there are still some essentials to note:
ensure th to
address is set (or pass --to)
git config --local sendemail.to
use origin/master or HEAD~n for the
--base option, this determines what is included in the
patch series
when sending to a public-inbox style list, ensure the subject
prefix is set
git config --local format.subjectprefix
when writing the cover letter, note that the first paragraph is parsed as the subject of the patch series, see –cover-from-description
