Hello,
  I am subscribed to some linux kernel subsystem mailing list; in this
list there are sometimes patchsets with more than
30-40 patches.
I am using gmail web interface client.

In order to apply a patch set I copy and paste each patch from the patchset into a file, and then apply that patch. I assume that there is a better way. Recently I encountered a fatal error when doing so (and I am not sure what caused it).

So my question is: does anyone know a more elegant way of applying a large patchset ? Maybe there is better mail client with which this process can be done easily ?

(I remember there was something called git apply-mbox in the past).

Rgs, Mark
