The disadvantage of this is that you will have to save those attachments somewhere and then apply them. When using "git send-email" you can just feed the emails directly to "git am". To be fair, I feel that my mail client is better at dealing with raw emails than with attachments so "git send-email" is more convenient for me. That may not be the case for other people.
