| 12 | DESCRIPTION |
| 13 | ----------- |
| Junio C Hamano | b7ed57a | 2007-05-25 05:01:30 | [diff] [blame] | 14 | Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" .. in the |
| 15 | specified directory so you can process them further from there. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | IMPORTANT: Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output |
| 18 | patches in the correct order. |
