Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] git-contacts: allow inputting patch via stdin
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 23:47:12 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260928-git-contacts-stdin-v5-1-e9becaebc47e@brighamcampbell.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260928-git-contacts-stdin-v5-0-e9becaebc47e@brighamcampbell.com>

Make git-contacts accept patch contents via stdin for better
interoperability with other utilities. Read from stdin when the user
passes `-` at least once:

$ git contacts - <patch
