NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       git quiltimport [--dry-run | -n] [--author <author>] [--patches <dir>]
10                       [--series <file>] [--keep-non-patch]

DESCRIPTION

14       Applies a quilt patchset onto the current Git branch, preserving the
15       patch boundaries, patch order, and patch descriptions present in the
16       quilt patchset.
17
18       For each patch the code attempts to extract the author from the patch
19       description. If that fails it falls back to the author specified with
20       --author. If the --author flag was not given the patch description is
21       displayed and the user is asked to interactively enter the author of
22       the patch.
23
24       If a subject is not found in the patch description the patch name is
25       preserved as the 1 line subject in the Git description.
