Thank you for your input.

git-multimail is maintained outside of the Git project and is only
distributed along with Git as a convenience to Git users.  It does in
fact have a test suite, along with some other bits and bobs that are not
needed to use it, in the upstream repository at

    https://github.com/mhagger/git-multimail

What's more, it has a maintainer who doesn't routinely insult other
people on the mailing list, conduct endless and pointless flame wars,
think that he is superior to everybody in sight, and throw temper
tantrums when his rudeness, argumentativeness, and arrogance for some
reason don't win the hearts and minds of other contributors.

Cheers,
Michael

I do not see anywhere in contrib/README any hint that contrib is meant
for that.

Good to know. But IMO the tests should be in git.git as well, or nothing
at all.

people on the mailing list,
Aaand skiping the rest. Good bye.

Aww, Felipe, it's no fair when you ignore other people's
slag. How ever will anyone argue with you if you don't let
them descend to your level?
