Subject: [PATCH] git-send-email: allow re-editing of message

From: Drew DeVault <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 2 May 2018 10:32:00 -0400

When shown the email summary, an opportunity is presented for the user
to edit the email as if they had specified --annotate. This also permits
them to edit it multiple times.
