GIT-QUILTIMPORT(1)			       GIT-QUILTIMPORT(1)

NAME
       git-quiltimport - Applies a quilt patchset onto the current branch

SYNOPSIS
       git quiltimport [--dry-run | -n] [--author <author>] [--patches <dir>]

DESCRIPTION
       Applies	a  quilt  patchset onto the current git branch, preserving the
       patch boundaries, patch order, and patch descriptions  present  in  the
       quilt patchset.

       For  each  patch the code attempts to extract the author from the patch
       description. If that fails it falls back to the author  specified  with
       --author.  If  the --author flag was not given the patch description is
       displayed and the user is asked to interactively enter  the  author  of
       the patch.

       If  a  subject  is not found in the patch description the patch name is
       preserved as the 1 line subject in the git description.

OPTIONS
       -n, --dry-run
	      Walk through the patches in the series and  warn	if  we	cannot
	      find  all of the necessary information to commit a patch. At the
	      time of this writing only missing author information  is	warned
	      about.

       --author Author Name <Author Email>
	      The author name and email address to use when no author informa-
	      tion can be found in the patch description.

       --patches <dir>
	      The directory to find the quilt patches  and  the	 quilt	series
	      file.

	      The  default  for the patch directory is patches or the value of
	      the $QUILT_PATCHES environment variable.
