git: 'send-email' is not a git command. See 'git --help'
git, git-send-email
Solution
You need to install the `git-email` package for it to work.
On `Ubuntu`, the usual `apt-get install git-email` works fine. I can confirm the same for `Fedora` as well (`yum install git-email`).
cebewee mentions the rationale in the comments:
Linux distributions often like to split up packages to avoid dependencies needed only by optional functionality (like send-email).
Note that you have to configure it before starting.
