Or do you mean
git send-email <options>
and have the <options> placeholder to stand for both send-email
options and options meant for format-patch?
the later AND including a non optional part that explains that you
need to indicate some sort of revision ...
Ah, thanks for explanation.
git format-patch -2
would be options-only way to "indicate some sort of revision", so
perhaps
. git send-email <send-email options> files|directory
. git send-email <send-email options> <format-patch options>
(where "options" is used to refer to both --options and arguments)
would illustrate the differences better?
