OPTIONS
-------
-<mbox>|<Maildir>...::
+(<mbox>|<Maildir>)...::
The list of mailbox files to read patches from. If you do not
supply this argument, the command reads from the standard input.
If you supply directories, they will be treated as Maildirs.
-k::
--keep::
- Pass `-k` flag to 'git-mailinfo' (see linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).
+ Pass `-k` flag to 'git mailinfo' (see linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).
+
+--keep-cr::
+--no-keep-cr::
+ With `--keep-cr`, call 'git mailsplit' (see linkgit:git-mailsplit[1])
+ with the same option, to prevent it from stripping CR at the end of
+ lines. `am.keepcr` configuration variable can be used to specify the
+ default behaviour. `--no-keep-cr` is useful to override `am.keepcr`.
+
+-c::
+--scissors::
+ Remove everything in body before a scissors line (see
+ linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).
+
+--no-scissors::
+ Ignore scissors lines (see linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).
+
+-q::
+--quiet::
+ Be quiet. Only print error messages.
-u::
--utf8::
- Pass `-u` flag to 'git-mailinfo' (see linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).
+ Pass `-u` flag to 'git mailinfo' (see linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).
The proposed commit log message taken from the e-mail
is re-coded into UTF-8 encoding (configuration variable
`i18n.commitencoding` can be used to specify project's
default. You can use `--no-utf8` to override this.
--no-utf8::
- Pass `-n` flag to 'git-mailinfo' (see
+ Pass `-n` flag to 'git mailinfo' (see
linkgit:git-mailinfo[1]).

- These flags are passed to the 'git-apply' (see linkgit:git-apply[1])
+ These flags are passed to the 'git apply' (see linkgit:git-apply[1])
program that applies
the patch.
Skip the current patch. This is only meaningful when
restarting an aborted patch.
+--continue::
-r::
--resolved::
After a patch failure (e.g. attempting to apply
to the screen before exiting. This overrides the
standard message informing you to use `--resolved`
or `--skip` to handle the failure. This is solely
- for internal use between 'git-rebase' and 'git-am'.
+ for internal use between 'git rebase' and 'git am'.
--abort::
Restore the original branch and abort the patching operation.
The "Subject: " line is supposed to concisely describe what the
commit is about in one line of text.
-"From: " and "Subject: " lines starting the body (the rest of the
-message after the blank line terminating the RFC2822 headers)
-override the respective commit author name and title values taken
-from the headers.
+"From: " and "Subject: " lines starting the body override the respective
+commit author name and title values taken from the headers.
The commit message is formed by the title taken from the
"Subject: ", a blank line and the body of the message up to
the index file to bring it into a state that the patch should
have produced. Then run the command with the '--resolved' option.
-The command refuses to process new mailboxes while the `.git/rebase-apply`

-run `rm -f -r .git/rebase-apply` before running the command with mailbox
+The command refuses to process new mailboxes until the current
