These operations are performed using GIT commands and the patches are stored as GIT commit objects, allowing easy merging of the StGIT patches into other repositories using standard GIT functionality. Note that StGIT is not an SCM interface on top of GIT and it expects a previously initialised GIT repository. For standard SCM operations, either use plain GIT commands or the Cogito tool. For more information, see the README file in the archive. What's new in this release (the full ChangeLog is in the archive): * Improved help for commands * 'mail' command to automatically e-mail a range of patches. The e-mail format is fully configurable via templates * 'import' command to import a GNU diff patch. The patch file can be a standard e-mail message or a normal file with the patch description at the top * 'pull' command to automatically advance the base of the stack and merge the changes into the applied patches * 'clean' command to delete the empty patches in a series * 'rename' command to change the name of a patch * '--range' option for the 'export' command * '--force' option for the 'new' command to create a patch even if there are local changes in the tree * Default templates for the 'export' and 'mail' commands (installed in /usr/share/stgit/templates/) * Bug fixes -- Catalin
