From 94629f2521711055b412f954af19e48b9bda6e50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Darren Hart Date: Fri, 21 Jan 2011 13:24:04 -0800 Subject: send-pull-request: send all patches as the local user When using sendmail to send patches, patches would appear to be from the original author as git adds a From: header in the generated patches. This patch changes this behavior to match that of git-send-email, where the email From: header is that of the current sender (according to sendmail) and a "From: Original Author " line is inserted into the body of the message.
