Example:
If you would like to send 3 last local commits in the patches and
include some information to them you would run `git format-patch -3 -n
--cover-letter'. It will create:
0000-cover-letter.patch
0001-commit-message-header-1.patch
0002-commit-message-header-2.patch
0003-commit-message-header-3.patch
Those files are separate commits which will result into separate
e-mails. You should open 0000-cover-letter.patch using your favorite
text file editor and include subject and message instead of **SUBJECT**
and **BLURB** lines. When you're done with that you can send them using
`git send-email 00* --to e-mail-address(a)domain.tld`.
Or consolidate those steps, and run:
git send-email -3 --cover-letter --annotate
which opens an editor on 4 temporary files (the cover letter and three
patches), and mails all four of them on exit, without you having to do
any file cleanup afterwards.
