NAME
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
git-quiltimport - Applies a quilt patchset onto the current branch
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
SYNOPSIS
 | 
						|
--------
 | 
						|
[verse]
 | 
						|
'git quiltimport' [--dry-run] [--author <author>] [--patches <dir>]
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
Applies a quilt patchset onto the current git branch, preserving
 | 
						|
the patch boundaries, patch order, and patch descriptions present
 | 
						|
in the quilt patchset.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
For each patch the code attempts to extract the author from the
 | 
						|
patch description.  If that fails it falls back to the author
 | 
						|
specified with --author.  If the --author flag was not given
 | 
						|
the patch description is displayed and the user is asked to
 | 
						|
interactively enter the author of the patch.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If a subject is not found in the patch description the patch name is
 | 
						|
preserved as the 1 line subject in the git description.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
