This new option takes an email message file, parses it, fills the "To",
"Subject" and "Cc" fields appropriately and quote the message.
This option involves the `--compose` mode to edit the cover letter quoting the
given email.

Cool!  There should probably be some help text to encourage
trimming down the quoted text to only relevant portions.

What kind of help text would you want to see?

Maybe something like this:

  GIT: Quoted message body below.
  GIT: Feel free to trim down the quoted text
  GIT: to only relevant portions.

As "GIT:" portions are ignored when parsed by `git send-email`.

That's an option, but in the context of email, I think these
instructions are not necessary.
