NAME

6       stg-sink - Send patches deeper down the stack
7

SYNOPSIS

9       stg sink [-t <target patch>] [-n] [--] [<patches>]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This is the opposite operation of stg-float(1): move the specified
13       patches down the stack. It is for example useful to group stable
14       patches near the bottom of the stack, where they are less likely to be
15       impacted by the push of another patch, and from where they can be more
16       easily committed or pushed.
17
18       If no patch is specified on command-line, the current patch gets sunk.
19       By default patches are sunk to the bottom of the stack, but the --to
20       option allows one to place them under any applied patch.
21
22       Sinking internally involves popping all patches (or all patches
23       including <target patch>), then pushing the patches to sink, and then
24       (unless --nopush is also given) pushing back into place the
25       formerly-applied patches.
26

OPTIONS

28       -n, --nopush
29           Do not push back on the stack the formerly-applied patches. Only
30           the patches to sink are pushed.
31
32       -t TARGET, --to TARGET
33           Specify a target patch to place the patches below, instead of
34           sinking them to the bottom of the stack.
35
36       -k, --keep
37           Keep the local changes.
