Re: [PATCH] git-send-email: add ~/.authinfo parsing

But it would probably make sense for send-email to support the existing
git-credential subsystem, so that it can take advantage of secure
system-specific storage. And that is where we should be pointing new
users. I think contrib/mw-to-git even has credential support written in
perl, so it would just need to be factored out to Git.pm.

Yeah, that sounds like a neat idea.
