This patch removes the prompting variable so git send-email always asks
for a in-reply message ID (unless specified on command line) even when
sendemail.from and sendemail.to is set in ~/.gitconfig or .git/config
Does this mean there's no way to run send-email non-interactively
without a reply-to?

I do want to get the prompt even though I want to set the sender field
in my ~/.gitconfig, but I wouldn't want the prompt to appear in the
cron job I run every nights to send me new patches in some repo for
example (a change in git-send-email already broke it in the past,
that's a rather anoying failure).

You probably want an option to enable/disable prompting. I'm not sure
whether it should be opt-in or opt-out.
