git-mailinfo(1) |
|
=============== |
|
|
|
NAME |
|
---- |
|
git-mailinfo - Extracts patch from a single e-mail message. |
|
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS |
|
-------- |
|
'git-mailinfo' [-k] [-u] <msg> <patch> |
|
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION |
|
----------- |
|
Reading 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-applypatch |
|
to create a commit. It is usually not necessary to use this |
|
command directly. |
|
|
|
|
|
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 --mbox' output. |
|
|
|
-u:: |
|
By default, the commit log message, author name and |
|
author email are taken from the e-mail without any |
|
charset conversion, after minimally decoding MIME |
|
transfer encoding. This flag causes the resulting |
|
commit to be encoded in utf-8 by transliterating them. |
|
Note that the patch is always used as is without charset |
|
conversion, even with this flag. |
|
|
|
<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. |
