From 8774aa56ad1af286b34e6ac7f1e65c75a4477fdd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle Meyer Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2022 15:21:23 -0500 Subject: send-email: relay '-v N' to format-patch send-email relays unrecognized arguments to its format-patch call. Passing '-v N' leads to an error because -v is consumed as send-email's --validate. For example, git send-email -v 3 @{u} fails with fatal: ambiguous argument '3': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. [...] To prevent this, add the short --reroll-count option to send-email's main option list and explicitly provide it to the format-patch call. There other format-patch options that send-email doesn't relay properly, including at least -n, -N, and the diff option -D. Punt on these because dealing with them is more complicated: * they would require configuring send-email to not ignore option case * send-email makes three GetOptions() calls with different sets of options, the last being the main set of options. Unlike -v, which is consumed by the last GetOptions call, the -n, -N, and -D options are consumed as abbreviations by the earlier calls.
