send-email: --suppress-cc improvements
Since 6564828 (git-send-email: Generalize auto-cc recipient mechanism., 2007-12-25) we can suppress automatic Cc generation separately for each of the possible address sources. However, --suppress-cc=sob suppressed both SOB lines and body (but not header) Cc lines, contrary to the name. Change --suppress-cc=sob to mean only SOB lines, and add separate choices 'bodycc' (body Cc lines) and 'body' (both 'sob' and 'bodycc'). The option --no-signed-off-by-cc now acts like --suppress-cc=sob, which is not backwards compatible but matches the name of the option. Also update the documentation and add a few tests. Original patch by me. Revised by Thomas Rast, who contributed the documentation and test updates. Signed-off-by: Jay Soffian <jaysoffian@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
