I believe we have discussed this already in a tangent to this bug
report, but if the option is to be useful as a "git send-email"
replacement, it should conform to that style by default.  I believe more
mailing-list based projects insist on that style, that there are
projects that accept attachments.

And as this is a user option, anyone can easily change it, so I think
that the default choice is reasonable.
