There is actually a gmail section in the man page.  `man git send-email`
It's a the bottom.


EXAMPLE
   Use gmail as the smtp server
       To use git send-email to send your patches through the GMail SMTP
       server, edit ~/.gitconfig to specify your account settings:

           [sendemail]
                   smtpencryption = tls
                   smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
                   smtpuser = yourname@gmail.com
                   smtpserverport = 587

       Once your commits are ready to be sent to the mailing list, run the
       following commands:

           $ git format-patch --cover-letter -M origin/master -o outgoing/
           $ edit outgoing/0000-*
           $ git send-email outgoing/*

       Note: the following perl modules are required Net::SMTP::SSL,
       MIME::Base64 and Authen::SASL
