So there is a "--cc-cmd" option that can do the same as those "-cc" arguments.
Combine that with --suppress-cc=bodycc and things get a bit more automated.

In my .gitconfig:

[sendemail]
	suppresscc = bodycc
	ccCmd = /home/agluck/bin/sendemail.ccCmd

and the command is some sed(1) to grap the Cc: lines except the
stable@vger.kernel.org one:

sed -n \
	-e '/Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org/d' \
	-e '/^Cc: /s///p' \
	-e '/^---/q' $1
