Subject: [PATCH v2] git-send-email: use ! to indicate relative path to command
Date: Tue, 11 May 2021 13:01:01 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210511190101.22128-1-greg@gpanders.com> (raw)

When the smtpServer config option is prefixed with a ! character, the
value of the option should be interpreted as a command to look up on
PATH.
---

Fix the implementation to correctly find the absolute path for the given 
command, and report an error if the command is not found on PATH.
