Hi,

Someone created a patch with git-format-patch and sent it to me. I would like to apply & commit the patch. If I use git-apply, it only patches my tree without committing it. Now, I need to copy the commit log, run git-commit and paste the commit log there. Is there a more intelligent way to do that?

Thanks, Erez
