Another thing that's missing in StGIT is the import of a series of
patches. At the moment I run a small shell script to import
individual patches.

One thing I would like to see in stgit is the opposite of "stg
commit"; instead of converting patches to regular commits, take the
topmost regular commits and convert them to patches.

For example, "stg uncommit foo bar baz" would -- regardless of any
existing patches, applied or not -- convert the top three regular
commits, with comments and all, to stgit patches called foo, bar, and
baz. These would be already applied, at the bottom of the stack. I
imagine all one would have to do is to modify some stgit metadata, so
the operation could be really cheap.

Of course, "stg uncommit" is allowed to reject any commit with more
than one parent, since those can't be represented as stgit patches.

This would perhaps not add much power to an all-stgit workflow, but it
would be a really convenient way to edit recent git history. Sort of
like a more convenient rebase. And a great way to lure new users. :-)

i think you want "stg pick --reverse" ?
