You can also do:
git send-email address@hidden HEAD~1
Which avoids any clutter.
I also like to do:
git config address@hidden
so I don't have to remember to use --to every time.
'git send-email --cover-letter' gives a nicer cover letter than 'git
send-email --compose'; it really bothers me that 'git send-email --help'
fails to mention that send-email also understands all options of
format-patch.
Thanks for your help. I need to figure out first, why git detects other
changes than mine for posting despite a git checkout master, git pull,
git reset --hard and make distclean.

Hi Erik,
I read your previous mail.
"git diff" shows the un-committed changes in your local git repository.
"git format-patch" formats the latest changes in your local git repository.
If you don't commit your own change to your local git repository,
"git format-patch" will format the latest changes from someone else.
As long as "git diff" shows your changes, there is no use to run "git
format-patch".
Regards,
Stefan W.
