9 | SYNOPSIS | |
10 | -------- | |
11 | [verse] | |
12 | 'git quiltimport' [--dry-run | -n] [--author <author>] [--patches <dir>] | |
13 | [--series <file>] [--keep-non-patch] | |
14 | ||
15 | ||
16 | DESCRIPTION | |
17 | ----------- | |
18 | Applies a quilt patchset onto the current Git branch, preserving | |
19 | the patch boundaries, patch order, and patch descriptions present | |
20 | in the quilt patchset. | |
21 | ||
22 | For each patch the code attempts to extract the author from the | |
23 | patch description. If that fails it falls back to the author | |
24 | specified with --author. If the --author flag was not given | |
25 | the patch description is displayed and the user is asked to | |
26 | interactively enter the author of the patch. | |
27 | ||
28 | If a subject is not found in the patch description the patch name is | |
29 | preserved as the 1 line subject in the Git description. | |
