Heh, right. With patch I just switch to another shell, cd to the correct directory, start mutt *there* and pipe the message to patch. Since this already seems to work for git-apply, maybe this can be made to work with git-am as well? Currently: $git-am mbox fatal: Not a git repository: '.git' You need to run this command from the toplevel of the working tree. -- MST - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
