You might have realized that this was not a proper patch with a commit 
message and a SOB?

As for Cc: I agree.  But not for S-O-B: this is not an email header.  And 
I was very specific in only changing the behavior for "pretty=email".

At least _I_ was surprised that pretty=email did not behave as if it was 
outputting email headers.

I agree with Linus for pretty=non-email, but not at all for pretty=email.

For the given scenario send-email is completely irrelevant.
