Subject: Re: [PATCH v4] send-email: --batch-size to work around some SMTP server limit
Date: Tue, 16 May 2017 14:10:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170516141014.6e8487df.viktorin@rehivetech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170513015726.20281-1-zxq_yx_007@163.com>

Hello,

with this patch applied to git 2.12, I could see:

Use of uninitialized value $batch_size in numeric eq (==) at /usr/lib/git-core/git-send-email line 1679

when --batch-size is NOT used. See below...

This is the line. I think, batch_size can be sometimes uninitialized
while this statement is executed.
