[PATCH] Documentation: cite git-am from git-apply

From: Brad King <brad.king@kitware.com>
Date: Aug 3, 2010, 18:41 UTC
Message-ID: <1280860910-6867-1-git-send-email-brad.king@kitware.com>

Users reading git-apply documentation may also be interested in git-am, especially after receiving an email created with git-format-patch. The documentation for git-am already references git-apply. Add the reverse.
