Just in case, I use git send email with my gmail account and I have 2 step auth configured. The only "limitation" however is that you have to create a password for each email client on it's own. If you own a gmail account, go to https://security.google.com/settings/security/apppasswords to create a password for the email client. -- Javier Domingo Cansino -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
