NAME

6       git-mailsplit - Simple UNIX mbox splitter program
7

SYNOPSIS

9       git mailsplit [-b] [-f<nn>] [-d<prec>] [--keep-cr] -o<directory> [--]
10       [(<mbox>|<Maildir>)...]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" ..
14       in the specified directory so you can process them further from there.
15
16           Important
17           Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output
18           patches in the correct order.
19

OPTIONS

21       <mbox>
22           Mbox file to split. If not given, the mbox is read from the
23           standard input.
24
25       <Maildir>
26           Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the
27           cur, tmp and new subdirectories.
28
29       -o<directory>
30           Directory in which to place the individual messages.
31
32       -b
33           If any file doesn’t begin with a From line, assume it is a single
34           mail message instead of signaling error.
35
36       -d<prec>
37           Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros, different
38           precision can be specified for the generated filenames.
39
40       -f<nn>
41           Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified, start
42           the numbering with 0004.
43
44       --keep-cr
45           Do not remove \r from lines ending with \r\n.
