Remember, if I have to hand-edit, or do something special with your
patch, I will not do it, you need to do it correctly to make
maintainer's lives easier, not harder, given that maintainers are the
limited resouce, not developers.

I understand. I'll make a mental note to never send you patches as
attachment again.

Better make that a general rule. My workflow is different from Greg's
but also doesn't cope well with attachments. A lot of people in turn
have problems quoting from an attachment when replying to the patch,
which happens to work for me.

Okay. Any hints on how to simplify sending out such patches with the
same list of recipients? I find it very annoying to have to manually
copy each recipient into the git send-email command-line, but I don't
know of a better way to do it. Replying to an email from the MUA will
at least do that automatically.

Reply from the MUA and then just put the patch in the email body.  If
you have a good MUA it should be trivial to do[1]

thanks,

1) mutt drops you to your editor, and then you can just read in the
   patch file directly to that buffer.
