Subject: [PATCH] git-am/git-mailsplit: correct synopsis for reading from stdin
Date: Sat, 12 Jul 2008 17:47:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1215877636-16982-1-git-send-email-s-beyer@gmx.net> (raw)

Invoking git-am or git-mailsplit without mbox or Maildir results
in reading an mbox from stdin.
This should be mentioned in the synopsis and usage strings.
