.SH NAME
notmuch\-extract\-patch \- extract a git patch series from notmuch
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
\&\fBnotmuch-extract-patch\fR [\fR\f(BImbox\-extract\-patch\fR\fI\|(1) options\fR] [\fI\-\-\fR] \fIQUERY\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\fBnotmuch-extract-patch\fR is a wrapper around \fBmbox\-extract\-patch\fR\|(1) to
extract a series of git patches from your notmuch database.  It is
designed to extract patches that were originally sent using
\&\fBgit\-send\-email\fR\|(1).  It skips cover letters and replies/reviews in its
output.
.SH EXAMPLE
.IX Header "EXAMPLE"
.Vb 2
\&    % git checkout \-b test\-feature

.SH LIMITATIONS
.IX Header "LIMITATIONS"
We inherit limitations of \fBmbox\-extract\-patch\fR\|(1).
.PP
\&\fBnotmuch-extract-patch\fR can select patches to extract based on the
reroll count (see \-v in \fBmbox\-extract\-patch\fR\|(1)), but otherwise typical
usage assumes that there is only one patch series in a thread.
.PP
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.
