1git-am(1) 2================ 3 4NAME 5---- 6git-am - Apply a series of patches in a mailbox 7 8 9SYNOPSIS 10-------- 11'git-am' [--signoff] [--dotest=<dir>] [--utf8] [--3way] <mbox> 12'git-am' [--skip] 13 14DESCRIPTION 15----------- 16Splits mail messages in a mailbox into commit log message, 17authorship information and patches, and applies them to the 18current branch. 19 20This is the replacement for the 'git-applymbox' script. 21Unlike git-applymbox, it can take more than one mailbox file from 22the command line, as well as reading from the standard input when 23'-' is specified. Other differences include changed parameter names 24and less descriptive command name. 25 26 27When initially invoking it, you give it name of the mailbox to crunch. 28The usage hints that it might get interrupted and you will want to 29resume the last round of applying - to do that, pass it no mailbox 30name, and optionally the mysterious '--skip' parameter. 31 32 33SEE ALSO 34-------- 35gitlink:git-applymbox[1], gitlink:git-applypatch[1]. 36 37 38Author 39------ 40Written by Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net> 41 42Documentation 43-------------- 44Documentation by Petr Baudis, Junio C Hamano and the git-list <git@vger.kernel.org>. 45 46This manual page is a stub.
