The line we are talking about is:
git send-email -M -1 --to openembedded-devel at lists.openembedded.org
--subject-prefix=meta-oe][PATCH
isn't it?

You're right, for one patch this line is simpler/faster. But basically I
like to create the patches first (and be able to review them) and send
them afterwards in a separate step.

Nonetheless if you like to add the "direct" send-email line I would at
least suggest to:
	a) use "origin" as rev instead of "-1"
	b) add "--annotate"

Richard
