git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient mechanism.
There are a few options to git-send-email to suppress the automatic generation of 'Cc' fields: --suppress-from, and --signed-off-cc. However, there are other times that git-send-email automatically includes Cc'd recipients. This is not desirable for all development environments. Add a new option --suppress-cc, which can be specified one or more times to list the categories of auto-cc fields that should be suppressed. If not specified, it defaults to values to give the same behavior as specified by --suppress-from, and --signed-off-cc. The categories are: self - patch sender. Same as --suppress-from. author - patch author. cc - cc lines mentioned in the patch. cccmd - avoid running the cccmd. sob - signed off by lines. all - all non-explicit recipients Signed-off-by: David Brown <git@davidb.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
