This would be a nice feature to have. I accomplish this through the command line right now, but would be great to have this apart of merge.
Some mailinglist providers, for example sourcehut, allow exporting patches as mbox files. Support for them would be very useful.
Problem description
Many open source projects, especially within the Linux sphere (and perhaps most notably Git itself), ask pull requests to be sent in through email. Git has a full set of tools built in to do this already, they just need to be represented in the GUI.
A typical workflow on both the sending and receiving end can be found here. A TL;DR-style list of commands for it can be found here.
Preferred solution
For people contributing to such projects...
git send-email -10 --cover-letter --annotate
and have a GUI to set the subject and add a description.)For people on the receiving end...
git am
.)Alternatives
None.
