Please ignore.  I'm a muppet.  I'm using the debian packages for git; and 
git-send-email is packaged separately in the git-email package.

git-send-email doesn't exist; so don't refer to it in the documentation.

Perhaps git-send-email.perl is meant to do this job?  It runs with an error.

[Jakub Narebski]

Please configure your mailer to _not_ send emails in Multipart/Mixed form!
For example it screws up GMane news<->email interface.

Which git version do you use?

 1063:jnareb@roke:~/git> which git-send-email
 /usr/bin/git-send-email
 1064:jnareb@roke:~/git> rpm -qf /usr/bin/git-send-email
 git-email-1.4.2.1-1
 1065:jnareb@roke:~/git> git --version
 git version 1.4.2.1

git-send-email is created from git-send-email.perl during instalation
(by make install). And it works.
