Subject: Making gmail 2 step verification work with git send-email

Hello,

Ok, I know this is not a kernel question. So apologies...
While sending a patch to linux-scsi yesterday I had to disable the
2-step gmail verification just to send the patch and then enabled it
again.

How do we make git work in the 2 step gmail mode?

+1.
Now, I use base64 to encode my application-specific password and save
this encoded password. But it is not very safe. Any good idea?

Create a new password, and use --smtp-pass[=<password>].
