[PATCH] git-send-email: Accept fifos as well as files

From: Kevin Ballard <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:44:50
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

When a fifo is given, validation must be skipped because we can't
read the fifo twice. Ideally git-send-email would cache the read
data instead of attempting to read twice, but for now just skip
validation.
