| |
A recent mailing list discussion about developer tools extended over to Google+.
https://plus.google.com/+DarrenHart/posts/EbVFWJu3FK9
Several members of the kernel community felt that improving the email client documentation would make it easier for new developers to get started submitting patches.
This series introduces three updates to help new contributors get Mutt working as quickly as possible.
* Clarify that Gmail is acceptable for sending patches, as long as it is used without the web interface.
* Add instructions for sending files directly from Mutt without use of a specific editor.
* Add a minimal Mutt configuration to use Gmail's IMAP servers to send text email.
I tested this configuration using a mockup local user and my own Gmail account.
Thanks
Eddie
