Perhaps add an "and" as "... user, and sends it out."

"otherwise" is usually used on error. Perhaps we want to say here
"or 1 on the email being successfully sent out."?

[PATCH v6 2/2] send-email: expose header information to git-send-email's sendemail-validate hook

[Strawbridge, Michael]

To allow further flexibility in the git hook, the SMTP header
information of the email that git-send-email intends to send, is now
passed as a 2nd argument to the sendemail-validate hook.

As an example, this can be useful for acting upon keywords in the
subject or specific email addresses.

Good work on this. I've a few tiny notes following.

Always use present simple tense when describing mechanics of code,
not future tense, "are passed". Think of when the user is reading
this long after the patch went in.

Also, please use "the format below."

Perhaps this is too much detail and unnecessary for the generalization
we're trying to achieve here?

Maybe the following would suffice?

   The SMTP envelope and headers are passed as the 2nd argument to the
   hook, exactly as they are passed to the user's Mail Transport Agent (MTA).
   In effect, the email given to the user's MTA, is the contents of $2 followed
   by the contents of $1.

As Junio and I discussed in the v5 2/2 patch review, here we may want to
do something like this: Add a custom header to the SMTP envelope and then make
sure that that is present when the hook checks $2.

To add a custom header, (and this uses real-world data, which is good),
use the following:

git format-patch --stdout --add-header="X-test-header: v1.0" HEAD^..HEAD > /tmp/some-temp-file

Then the hook verifies that "X-test-header: v1.0" is present in $2, when git-send-email
is run with /tmp/some-temp-file.

If "$2" is not given, or an empty "$2" is given, is that an error?
I am wondering if the lack of "else" clause (and the hook exits with
success when "$2" is an empty file) here is intentional.

Do not cat a single file into a pipe.  You can instead redirect out
of the file to whatever is reading from the pipe.  I.e.

	replace_variable_fields <actual >actual-headers &&

>> +	test_cmp expected-headers actual-headers
>> +'

OK.  We make sure the presence and the order of the fields in the
output just like all the other tests in this file do (which I think
may be a bit too much---there is no strong reason to insist that
"Subject:" comes before or after "Date:" or is spelled "Subject:"
and not "subject:" or "SUBJECT:"---but that is a problem shared with
many other existing tests in this file and this patch is not making
it much worse).

Adding a custom header test is also fine, but I am OK with what we
see above, to verify the headers just the same way as existing
tests.

I think we'll always have a $2, since it is the SMTP envelope and headers.

For the rest of the comments, I'll let Michael address them.

We write our tests to verify _that_ assumption you have.  A future
developer mistakenly drops the code to append the file to the
command line that invokes the hook, and we want our test to catch
such a mistake.

Do we really feed envelope?  E.g. if the --envelope-sender=<who> is
used, does $2 have the "From:" from the header and "MAIL TO" from
the envelope separately?

I'm not sure--I thought we did, but yes, we should _test_ that we indeed
1) have/get $2, as a non-empty string,
2) it is a non-empty, readable file,
3) contains the test header we included in git-format-patch in the test.

This is what I meant when I wrote "we'll always have $2 ...", not having it
is failure of some kind and yes we should test for it.

I've tested using the envelope-sender=<who> and the hook only gets the headers.  I've applied the feedback above in patch set v8 including a test for the 2nd argument.  The new test will fail if either the supplied argument is not a file or the custom header is not found.

[PATCH v5 0/2] send-email: expose header information to git-send-email's sendemail-validate hook

[Strawbridge, Michael]

Hi Junio,

I very much appreciate the feedback and believe I have changed things to match.

To answer your earlier question, the hook doesn't need to support multiple header capitalizations (ie. only Cc is passed). However, it does need to understand that lines beginning with whitespace belong to the previous header.  The header information follows the same format as the confirmation given at the end of send-email.
