[PATCH v2 5/6] send-email: fix non-threaded mails

From: Markus Heidelberg <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:46:55
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

After commit 3e0c4ff (send-email: respect in-reply-to regardless of
threading, 2009-03-01) the variable $thread was only used for prompting
for an "In-Reply-To", but not for controlling whether the "In-Reply-To"
and "References" fields should be written into the email.

Thus these fields were always used beginning with the second mail and it
was not possible to produce non-threaded mails anymore until commit
15da108 ("send-email: 'References:' should only reference what is sent",
2009-04-13), which introduced a regression with the side effect to make
it possible again when --no-chain-reply-to was set.

Differences to v1:
* patch context in the test:
  "git send-email" instead of "!git send-email"
