[PATCH] Implement a --dry-run option to git-quiltimport

From: Eric W. Biederman <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 22:42:26
Subsystem: documentation, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Linus Torvalds

Since large quilt trees like -mm can easily have patches
without clear authorship information, add a --dry-run
option to make the problem patches easy to find.

---

This patch should make it easy to communicate to Andrew
and others exactly which patches there are problems
with, and should make it possible to easily edit
those patches before they are imported.
