From: Frank Lichtenheld Date: Mon, 14 May 2007 14:44:52 GMT Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: format-patch has no --mbox option Message-ID: <11791538941530-git-send-email-frank@lichtenheld.de> In-Reply-To: <1179153893715-git-send-email-frank@lichtenheld.de> git-applymbox and git-mailinfo refer to a --mbox option of git-format-patch. But there is no such option AFAICT. mbox output can produced with format-patch --stdout. This patch only replaces --mbox with --stdout. Some further explanation and/or format-patch arguments (e.g. -k) might be needed.
