The point of these sections is generally to:
1. Give credit where it is due.
2. Give the reader an idea of where to ask questions or
file bug reports.
But they don't do a good job of either case. For (1), they
are out of date and incomplete. A much more accurate answer
can be gotten through shortlog or blame. For (2), the
correct contact point is generally git@vger, and even if you
wanted to cc the contact point, the out-of-date and
incomplete fields mean you're likely sending to somebody
useless.
So let's drop the fields entirely from all manpages except
git(1) itself. We already point people to the mailing list
for bug reports there, and we can update the Authors section
to give credit to the major contributors and point to
shortlog and blame for more information.
Each page has a "This is part of git" footer, so people can
follow that to the main git manpage.

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
git-mailsplit - Simple UNIX mbox splitter program
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
'git mailsplit' [-b] [-f<nn>] [-d<prec>] [--keep-cr] -o<directory> [--] [(<mbox>|<Maildir>)...]
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" .. in the
|
|
specified directory so you can process them further from there.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output
|
|
patches in the correct order.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
<mbox>::
|
|
Mbox file to split. If not given, the mbox is read from
|
|
the standard input.
|
|
|
|
<Maildir>::
|
|
Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the cur, tmp
|
|
and new subdirectories.
|
|
|
|
-o<directory>::
|
|
Directory in which to place the individual messages.
|
|
|
|
-b::
|
|
If any file doesn't begin with a From line, assume it is a
|
|
single mail message instead of signaling error.
|
|
|
|
-d<prec>::
|
|
Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros,
|
|
different precision can be specified for the generated
|
|
filenames.
|
|
|
|
-f<nn>::
|
|
Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified,
|
|
start the numbering with 0004.
|
|
|
|
--keep-cr::
|
|
Do not remove `\r` from lines ending with `\r\n`.
