Email a series of commits interactively

Synopsis

guilt patchbomb [-n] [-s] [--in-reply-to <msgid>] [--git] [--subject-prefix <prefix>] [<hash> | <since>​.​.[<until>] | ​.​.<until>]

Description

Send a series of commits via email asking for To, CC and other information interactively​.

Options

-n

Don’t send

-s

Don’t add additional repository committer sign-offs to the patch​. This allows the sign-off chain to be fully expressed in the commit messages and not changed by the act of sending a patchbomb​.

--in-reply-to <msgid>

Set the In-reply-to header to the specified message id​. This allows the patches to be sent as replies to an arbitrary message​.

--git

Generate a patch which uses all the features offered by the git diff format (e​.g​., rename and copy detection)​.

--subject-prefix <prefix>

Rather than using the standard [PATCH] prefix in the subject line, use [<prefix>] instead​.

<hash>

Only the specified revision​.

<since>​.​.[<until>]

Revisions starting from <since> until <until>​. The <since> revision it self is NOT included, while <until> is​. If <until> is not specified, it is assumed to be HEAD​.

​.​.<until>

All revisions until the <until> revision (inclusive)​.
