git-mailinfo(1) |
|
=============== |
|
|
|
NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-mailinfo - Extracts patch and authorship from a single e-mail message |
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git mailinfo' [-k] [-u | --encoding=<encoding> | -n] <msg> <patch> |
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
Reads a single e-mail message from the standard input, and |
|
writes the commit log message in <msg> file, and the patches in |
|
<patch> file. The author name, e-mail and e-mail subject are |
|
written out to the standard output to be used by 'git-am' |
|
to create a commit. It is usually not necessary to use this |
|
command directly. See linkgit:git-am[1] instead. |
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS |
|
------- |
|
-k:: |
|
Usually the program 'cleans up' the Subject: header line |
|
to extract the title line for the commit log message, |
|
among which (1) remove 'Re:' or 're:', (2) leading |
|
whitespaces, (3) '[' up to ']', typically '[PATCH]', and |
|
then prepends "[PATCH] ". This flag forbids this |
|
munging, and is most useful when used to read back |
|
'git-format-patch -k' output. |
|
|
|
-u:: |
|
The commit log message, author name and author email are |
|
taken from the e-mail, and after minimally decoding MIME |
|
transfer encoding, re-coded in UTF-8 by transliterating |
|
them. This used to be optional but now it is the default. |
|
+ |
|
Note that the patch is always used as-is without charset |
|
conversion, even with this flag. |
|
|
|
--encoding=<encoding>:: |
|
Similar to -u but if the local convention is different |
|
from what is specified by i18n.commitencoding, this flag |
|
can be used to override it. |
|
|
|
-n:: |
|
Disable all charset re-coding of the metadata. |
|
|
|
<msg>:: |
|
The commit log message extracted from e-mail, usually |
|
except the title line which comes from e-mail Subject. |
|
|
|
<patch>:: |
|
The patch extracted from e-mail. |
