Subject: Problem with git send-email and --reply-to
Date: Fri, 24 Apr 2026 15:13:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <26f3a5b2-1656-482a-9349-ca3592b8bba1@amd.com> (raw)

Hello everybody,

either I've found a bug or there is something absolutely not obvious going on here with git send-email.

I want to use the --reply-to option with git send-email to make sure that people reply to my AMD mail address and not my gmail address used for sending mails.

When I use the option on the command line it works fine, but when I put that into my .gitconfig it doesn't seem to have any effect.

Any idea what could be wrong here?

.gitconfig looks like this:

[user]
    name = Christian König
    email = christian.koenig@amd.com
[sendemail]
    reply-to = christian.koenig@amd.com

Thanks in advance,
Christian.
