I recently switched from letting "git send-email" generate Message-IDs
to letting "git format-patch" generate them (by setting
format.thread=true in git config). This means the Message-IDs are now
preserved in the cover letter and individual patch files, which can be
useful for reporting, or for creating backlinks to the previous version.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
