Let me refactor your question more usefully.  What we want is quilt-export
and quilt-import.  And I really mean that: commands called git-quilt-export
and git-quilt-import.

coz then, your problem becomes

	git-quilt-export
	<delete one line from the series file>
	git-quilt-import


Because git-quilt-export and git-quilt-import would be useful for lots of
other things.
