mutt aliases file not working
For whatever reason, which I'm sure is user error, I haven't been able to get mutt aliases to work, while mailrc works fine:
$ mkdir aliases.git $ cd !$ $ git init Initialized empty Git repository in /home/dvhart/aliases.git/.git/ $ echo "joe Joe Blow [email protected]" > muttaliases $ git add muttaliases $ git commit -m "aliases file" [master (root-commit) b71ae4a] aliases file 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100644 muttaliases $ git config sendemail.aliasesfile `pwd`/muttaliases $ git config sendemail.aliasfiletype mutt $ cat .git/config [core] repositoryformatversion = 0 filemode = true bare = false logallrefupdates = true [sendemail] aliasesfile = /home/dvhart/aliases.git/muttaliases aliasfiletype = mutt $ git send-email --to joe -1 /tmp/l0xCEC7o3d/0001-aliases-file.patch Who should the emails appear to be from?

How about:
echo 'alias joe Joe Blow<[email protected]>'> muttaliases
Indeed, that fixes it. I checked my reference for the mutt aliases format and apparently missed the "alias " clearly printed out there. My apologies.
The git send-email man page is surely sufficient for users of mutt, mailrc, pine, elm, gnus as they already have working configurations, but for those of us that use a different MUA and just want to get some sort of an address book for git, it would be nice to define these formats - it would only take one line per format type.
Thanks!
