I have the following in my .quiltrc
quilt_mail_patch_filter() { local x=$(cat) echo "$x" \ | sed -n \ -e 's/^\(To\|Cc\):/Recipient-\1:/ip' \ -e 's/^Subject:/Replace-Subject:/p' \ -e '/^\*\*\*\|---/q' echo # Discard the patch header, and pass on the rest echo "$x" | awk ' !seen_from && (/^From: /) { print $0 "\n" ; seen_from = 1 } !in_body && (/^[-A-Za-z]+:/) { next } !in_body && (/^$/) { in_body = 1 ; next } { print } ' }
And I have my patches in the following form:
Subject: mail subject From: <someone if not I, git uses it>
<area (Usually Input)>: Short patch description
Decsription
Signed-off-by: X XX --- <patch>
Then quilt mail command seems to do the right thing.
