Hi Uladzimir,

I have configured git send-email but I still have problems with SMTP
authentication due to two multiple factor authentication settings on
my gmail account. However, I found this which is interesting and also
fits with my perception. I think that the attached patches should be
accepted as well as inline. IMHO, obviously.

Note to developers and maintainers of glibc, Buildroot, and other
projects which require the use of git send-email to send patches: if I
wasn't a professional developer, there's not a chance in heck I could
submit a patch, even if I knew how to expertly code and had important
changes to make. The barrier of entry into git, rebasing, formatting
patches, configuring git send-email, etc., is just too high. Consider
lowering the barrier to entry by using modern tools such as GitHub,
GitLab, or BitBucket to manage your projects and accept patches, in
lieu of emailed patches, email mailing lists, and git send-email. One
huge success case of making this transition recently is KiCad. In 2020
they were still using emailed git patches. Now, they have migrated
fully to GitLab: https://gitlab.com/kicad. Their issue reporting and
management, for instance, is sooooo much easier now!:
https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues. Even regular users who
are non-programmers are easily able to report issues now, whereas
before, KiCad was using https://launchpad.net/kicad, which was more
tedious and difficult.

At a minimum, do people a favor and please direct people to this
answer to help them set up git send-email, and help keep this answer
up-to-date.

Best regards, -R
