This is a bit underspecified.  What should the subject be?  Do you want 
to have something like --cover-letter but placing the messages after 
00/NN in an attachment?

It seems easiest to write a small filter in Perl, but it could be added 
as an option to git-format-patch, maybe something like 
--cover-letter=attach-all.
