I'm using the current 'master' branch so --cover-letter is there.
Managed to miss it anyway. :)

Hmm, do you send the 0000-cover-letter.patch with 'git send-email'? It
seems that this cover letter don't get MIME headers when sent that way.
Sending through 'mutt -H' it works fine but then the Message-Id needs to
be copy-pasted manually to send-mail for the rest of the series (to have
them appear as replies, that is). No problem with that.

I mostly use (and promote) UTF-8 and now that I begin to understand how
send-email works I can live with the current behaviour just fine. Don't
take my feedback as complaining. :)

In general my interests are in human languages and I have done quite
a lot of work in different areas to make computers interact nicely with
human languages. This is my interest in general level and I tend to
report/fix problems when I notice them. From Git's point of view at the
present moment we can probably say just like you did: "make us feel
feature complete."

Thanks for your work on this. Really.
