Some people may find it convenient to append a simple patch at the
bottom of a discussion e-mail separated by a "scissors" mark, ready
to be applied with "git am -c".  Introduce "--inline-single" option
to format-patch to do so.  A typical usage example might be to start
'F'ollow-up to a discussion, write your message, conclude with "a
patch to do so may look like this.", and

    \C-u M-! git format-patch --inline-single -1 HEAD <ENTER>

if you are an Emacs user.  Users of other MUA's may want to consult
their manuals to find equivalent command to append output from an
external command to the message being composed.

Interesting. I usually just do this by hand, but this could save a few
keystrokes in my workflow.

Same here.  This is great; thanks a lot both for working on it!
