Note that the "easy" way to do this is:
1. yum install git-email
2. git config sendemail.to yum-devel at lists.baseurl.org
[... whenever you have commits instead of git push ...]
3. git send-email origin/yum-3_2_X
[... or if you want to send just a single commit ...]
git send-email id^..id
Eg. git send-email
5f7fd9f98a23d05a9ca439e1b30f5d2926c882b3^..5f7fd9f98a23d05a9ca439e1b30f5d2926c882b3
...and yeh, the later looks like pants :).
