NAME

       gquilt - patch series manager

SYNOPSIS

       gquilt

OPTIONS

       gquilt does not currently have any options.

DESCRIPTION

       gquilt  is  a GTK+ GUI for the quilt patch management program. Patches are managed by selecting files to add to a patch from the root play-
       ground directory, editing in changes, and then refreshing the patch to add these changes to the top patch.  The root  playground  directory
       can  be	set by selecting the Open option from the Playground menu; it is set by default to the working directory of gquilt's execution, or
       the user's home directory (if launched from a menu).

       Currently, point and click interfaces are provided for a small subset of quilt's most frequently-used commands, such as push, pop, refresh,
       import, fold, and creating and deleting patches in a series.

       A  text	widget	allows	execution of arbitrary quilt commands, in order to compensate for incomplete coverage of quilt's command set.  All
       quilt commands initiated by the user (using either point and click or text entry) are echoed to the console widget, with input in black and
       output in red.  gquilt is still in the early stages of development, and evolving rapidly.

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 information 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.
