[PATCH 0/7] improve "git format-patch --commit-list-format"

[Mirko Faina <mroik@delayed.space>]

This series aims to improve the --commit-list-format (former
--cover-letter-format) option for format-patch by improving a bit the
user interaction with the option (and its configuration variable
counterpart), removing the ability to use the configuration variable in
an ambiguous way (which also causes problems when interacting with it
through the cli interface) and introducing a new format preset.

This series is based on top of 67006b9db8 (The 15th batch, 2026-03-12)
