This would give you only a single patch, representing the commit at
HEAD~7

Maybe the "--compose" to "git send-email" is what you are looking for:
--compose
Invoke a text editor (see GIT_EDITOR in git-var(1)) to edit an
introductory
message for the patch series.
When --compose is used, git send-email will use the From, Subject,
and
In-Reply-To headers specified in the message. If the body of the
message (what
you type after the headers and a blank line) only contains blank (or
GIT:
prefixed) lines the summary won't be sent, but From, Subject, and
In-Reply-To
headers will be used unless they are removed.
Missing From or In-Reply-To headers will be prompted for.
See the CONFIGURATION section for sendemail.multiedit.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
