Name Git - instructions for configuring git(1) Description git-diff(1), gitattributes(5) To produce useful hunk contexts in manual pages, we need to hack git(1)'s idea of a function name, and also to tell git what is a manual page. $ git config --global diff.man.xfuncname '^\.S[SHsh] .*$'; $ echo '*.[0-9]* diff=man' >>~/.config/git/attributes; git-format-patch(1) Send patches to the right addresses. $ git config --local format.to 'Alejandro Colomar '; $ git config --local format.cc ''; git-send-email(1) If mutt(1) or neomutt(1) are configured in the system, git-send-email(1) can be configured to use any of them as a driver. Recent versions of neomutt(1) can enable crypto with -C. $ git config --global \ sendemail.sendmailcmd 'neomutt -C -H - && true'; or $ git config --global sendemail.sendmailcmd 'mutt -H - && true'; See also git-config(1) git-diff(1) git-format-patch(1) git-send-email(1) gitattributes(5) mutt(1) neomutt(1) CONTRIBUTING.d/*
