I do use git send-email, and if you remember I only changed the defaults 
because you were having problems with them ;) I currently have this in 
.git/config in my local libguestfs repo:

[format]
   attach

I'll remove it again...

I don't think it will. Makefile will process the 2 images files in 
order. The creation of fedora-md1.img will also create fedora-md2.img. 
When processing fedora-md2.img, the timestamp check will prevent it 
being run again.
