well, i finally got round to sorting this one

i added a '--mail' arg to git-bz
so, to send your patch to the koha-patches list, when attaching to bugzilla, run...

$ git-bz attach -m 1234 HEAD

i've pushed the change to my git repo, for your pulling pleasure -> https://github.com/KohaAloha/git-bz


feedback welcome
