Select the patch you want to download using up/down arrow key. Press s. Delete the mailbox name provide using Backspace key and provide path on local filesystem e.g. ~/patches/logical_name.patch. It will ask to save, yes is default, so press Enter. Now your patch is saved on local filesystem. Create a topic branch e.g. Your on master, git checkout -b work Now you are on topic branch work, run as follows, git am ~/patches/logical_name.patch If you are on the right tree then it should apply the patch and commit. If something goes wrong, please follow the instructions provided by git. I think this will help.
