=head1 NAME
notmuch-extract-patch - extract a git patch series from notmuch
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<notmuch-extract-patch> [I<mbox-extract-patch(1) options>] [I<-->] I<QUERY>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<notmuch-extract-patch> is a wrapper around mbox-extract-patch(1) to
extract a series of git patches from your notmuch database. It is
designed to extract patches that were originally sent using
git-send-email(1). It skips cover letters and replies/reviews in its
output.
=head1 EXAMPLE
=over 4
% git checkout -b test-feature
% notmuch-extract-patch thread:000000000000265f | git am
=back
=head1 LIMITATIONS
We inherit limitations of mbox-extract-patch(1).
B<notmuch-extract-patch> can select patches to extract based on the
reroll count (see -v in mbox-extract-patch(1)), but otherwise typical
usage assumes that there is only one patch series in a thread.
If this assumption is violated, you would need to construct a notmuch
query that includes only the patches you want to extract, which
somewhat defeats the purpose of having this script.
