Re: [StGit PATCH] Tutorial: Importing patches

Hi Karl,

Thanks for the patch.

2008/10/28 Karl Hasselström [off-list ref]:
+Importing a patch from an e-mail is simple too:
+
+  $ stg import --mail my-mail
+
+The e-mail should be in standard Git mail format (which is what e.g.
+stglink:mail[] produces) -- that is, with the patch in-line in the
+mail, not attached. The authorship info is taken from the mail
+headers, and the commit message is read from the 'Subject:' line and
+the mail body.
It actually supports importing diffs from attachments as well as long
as they are text/plain (the description is expected in the mail body).
Anyway, I think we don't have to mention this in the tutorial as most
people would use the Git mail format anyway.
