Sorry, what I meant is that Andrew and I both mentioned copy-paste and
you replied earlier (and I have already deleted it) that copy-paste shouldn't
be necessary for someone who is using get_maintainer.pl.

Do you redirect its output to your patch file and then edit it or does
get_maintainer.pl work with git-send-email or something else? if something
else, what is it, please?
