It's been available for ages, it's not a matter of old git.  It's just that it's
packaged separately:

https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/git-email

The packages.ubuntu.com interface (derived from packages.debian.org) is handy to
find which package provides a given file.  For example to find that the git-email
package provides the git-send-email file:

https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=bionic&arch=amd64&mode=exactfilename&searchon=contents&keywords=git-send-email

Alternatively, the `apt-file` package gives you the same functionality locally.
