Subject: [BUG] git-send-email hangs when sendemail.suppresscc is set without sendemail.confirm
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2026 14:46:39 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <818da18e-f928-4473-8a37-28a737dbb261@app.fastmail.com> (raw)
When sendemail.suppresscc is configured (e.g., suppresscc=bodycc) but
sendemail.confirm is not explicitly set, git-send-email hangs
indefinitely after processing the patch headers.
Steps to reproduce:
git config sendemail.suppresscc bodycc
# Ensure sendemail.confirm is NOT set
git config --unset sendemail.confirm
git send-email --to="someone@example.com" HEAD^
Expected: email is sent (or a confirmation prompt appears)
Actual: process hangs indefinitely after printing "Adding cc:" lines
Workaround: explicitly set sendemail.confirm:
git config sendemail.confirm always
Tested with git 2.53.0
Best,
Siwei
