I couldn't find in the StGIT documentation on how to use a 'series'
file or to pull a whole bunch of patches from a directory.  It seems
the import command could only handle a patch at a time.  Any
tips/help?

Cheers,
Don

If import will do once at a time, and you are sure all of them apply
cleanly; why don't you just use a for + import over the patches ?

Patch ordering is important to me. I didn't want re-invent the wheel,
so to speak.   :)

I can easily create my own 'series' file and iterate through that
while importing patches, but I wanted to see if that was already
built-in.
