Junio C Hamano7c73c662007-01-19 00:37:50269 Extracts patch and authorship from a single e-mail message

273<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
274<div class="sectionbody">
275<p><em>git-mailinfo</em> [-k] [-u | --encoding=&lt;encoding&gt;] &lt;msg&gt; &lt;patch&gt;</p>
276</div>
277<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
278<div class="sectionbody">
279<p>Reading a single e-mail message from the standard input, and
280writes the commit log message in &lt;msg&gt; file, and the patches in
281&lt;patch&gt; file. The author name, e-mail and e-mail subject are
282written out to the standard output to be used by git-applypatch
283to create a commit. It is usually not necessary to use this
Junio C Hamanoe58607f2007-01-17 23:27:45284command directly. See <a href="git-am.html">git-am(1)</a> instead.</p>
Junio C Hamano1a4e8412005-12-27 08:17:23285</div>

288<dl>
289<dt>
290-k
291</dt>
292<dd>
293<p>
294 Usually the program <em>cleans up</em> the Subject: header line
295 to extract the title line for the commit log message,
296 among which (1) remove <em>Re:</em> or <em>re:</em>, (2) leading
297 whitespaces, (3) <em>[</em> up to <em>]</em>, typically <em>[PATCH]</em>, and
298 then prepends "[PATCH] ". This flag forbids this
299 munging, and is most useful when used to read back <em>git
300 format-patch --mbox</em> output.

307<p>
Junio C Hamano27eacdb2007-01-10 05:37:47308 The commit log message, author name and author email are
309 taken from the e-mail, and after minimally decoding MIME
310 transfer encoding, re-coded in UTF-8 by transliterating
311 them. This used to be optional but now it is the default.
Junio C Hamano1a4e8412005-12-27 08:17:23312</p>
Junio C Hamano27eacdb2007-01-10 05:37:47313<p>Note that the patch is always used as-is without charset
314conversion, even with this flag.</p>

319<dd>
320<p>
321 Similar to -u but if the local convention is different
322 from what is specified by i18n.commitencoding, this flag
323 can be used to override it.
