Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: format-patch has no --mbox option
Date: Mon, 14 May 2007 16:44:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11791538941530-git-send-email-frank@lichtenheld.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1179153893715-git-send-email-frank@lichtenheld.de>

git-applymbox and git-mailinfo refer to a --mbox
option of git-format-patch. But there is no such
option AFAICT. mbox output can produced with
format-patch --stdout.

This patch only replaces --mbox with --stdout.
Some further explanation and/or format-patch
arguments (e.g. -k) might be needed.
