In general I think most people send patches with git-send-email. If
you use git-send-email you can simply add a Message-Id into your patch
files before passing them to git-send-email and it'll use that. If
you use mutt to directly send a patch then, right, it won't get a
message ID like this. I think expecting 100% adoption is impossible,
so for now I'm hoping to get sufficient adoption that it could be
worth it for someone to do the tools integration.
FYI: I personally use patman to send my patches (which eventually
passes them to git-send-email). The patman change to setup the
Message-Id is at:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1157266/
Johannes Berg also responded to my patch providing a proof of concept
way to use a git hook.
NOTE: for responses to patches (where it's more likely people will use
mutt) there is no need for magic Message-Id. There are already plenty
of ways to track responses to emails.
-Doug
