git series add change...
Add changes to the staging area for the next git series
commit.
change...
Changes to add: any combination of "series",
"base", and "cover".
git series base [-d|--delete] [base]
Get or set the base commit for the patch series. With no
parameters, print the hash of the base commit. With
parameters, set or delete the base commit.
This only changes the base in the working version of the
patch series; use git series add base to add that change
to the next git series commit, or use git series commit -a
to commit the new base and all other changes to the series
in one step.
base New base commit. This can use a commit hash, ref
name, or special syntaxes such as refname^ or
refname~2.
-d|--delete
Delete the current base commit.
git series checkout name
Resume work on the patch series name; check out the
current version as HEAD.
git series commit [-a|--all] [-m message] [-v|--verbose]
Record a new version of the patch series. Without
arguments, this will run an editor to edit a commit
message, and then commit the changes previously added with
git series add.
-a|--all
Commit all changes, not just those added with git
series add.
-m message
Use message as the commit message, rather than
running an editor.
-v|--verbose
Show a diff of the commit in the editor, below the
commit message, as a reminder of the changes in the
commit. This diff will not appear in the commit
message.
git series cover [-d|--delete]
Create or edit the cover letter for the patch series.
Without arguments, this will run an editor to edit the
cover letter.
This only changes the cover letter in the working version
of the patch series; use git series add cover to add that
change to the next git series commit, or use git series
commit -a to commit the new cover letter and all other
changes to the series in one step.
-d|--delete
Delete the cover letter rather than editing it.
git series cp [source] dest
Copy the series source to dest, including any work in
progress, staged or unstaged. source defaults to the
current series if omitted.
git series delete name
Delete the series name, including any work in progress,
staged or unstaged.
git series detach
Stop working on any patch series. Any changes in
progress, staged or unstaged, will remain intact. To
start working on the branch again, use git series
checkout.
git series diff
Show changes to the patch series from the current working
version to the staged version. Changes to the cover
letter appear as standard text diffs. If both the old and
new version contain base and series entries, git series
diff will find and show the correspondence between the old
and new versions of each commit. The series diff format
shows reordered commits, deleted or added commits, and
modified commits. For modified commits, the series diff
includes a simplified interdiff between the commits.
git series format [--in-reply-to=Message-Id] [--no-from] [-v N |
--reroll-count=N] [--rfc] [--stdout] [--subject-prefix=prefix]
Prepare the patch series to send via email. This creates
one file per patch in the series, plus one additional file
for the cover letter if any. The patch series must have a
base set with git series base, to identify the series of
patches to format.
Each file contains one email in mbox format, ready to
send, with email headers threading all the patches
together. If the series has a cover letter, all of the
patches will include headers to make them a reply to the
cover letter; otherwise, all of the patches will include
headers to make them a reply to the first patch.
--in-reply-to=Message-Id
Make the first mail a reply to the specified
Message-Id. The Message-Id may include or omit the
surrounding angle brackets; git-series will add
them if not present.
--no-from
By default, git series format includes a "From:"
line in the mail body for the commit author when
formatting commits you didn't write; this allows
you to send the patches as emails from your own
address while preserving authorship information for
each patch. git series format --no-from will
instead use the commit author as the "From:"
address for each patch mail. Use this when
producing patch files for purposes other than
email.
-v N | --reroll-count=N
Mark the patch series as PATCH vN. The patch
filenames and mail subjects will include the
version number.
--rfc Use [RFC PATCH] instead of the standard [PATCH]
prefix.
--stdout
Write the entire patch series to stdout rather than
to separate patch files.
--subject-prefix=prefix
Use [prefix] instead of the standard [PATCH]
prefix.
git series help [subcommand]
Show help for git series or a subcommand. Without
arguments, shows a summary of the subcommands supported by
git series.
subcommand
Show help for subcommand.
git series log [-p|--patch]
Show the history of the patch series.
-p|--patch
Include a patch for each change committed to the
series. This uses the same series diff format as
git series diff.
git series mv [source] dest
Move (rename) the series source to dest, including any
work in progress, staged or unstaged. source defaults to
the current series if omitted. Moving the current series
will make the destination the current series.
You can also invoke this as git series rename.
git series rebase [-i|--interactive] [onto]
Rebase the patch series, either onto a new base,
interactively, or both. The patch series must have a base
set with git series base, to identify the series of
patches to rebase.
onto Commit to rebase the series onto. This can use a
commit hash, ref name, or special syntaxes such as
refname^ or refname~2.
-i|--interactive
Interactively edit the list of commits. This uses
the same format and syntax as git rebase -i, to
allow reordering, dropping, combining, or editing
commits.
git series req [-p|--patch] url tag
Generate a mail requesting a pull of the patch series.
Before running this command, push the patch series to the
repository at url, as a tag or branch named tag.
A pull request for a signed or annotated tag will include
the message from the tag. The pull request will also
include the cover letter if any, unless the tag message
already contains the cover letter. The subject of the
mail will include the first line from the cover letter, or
the name of the series if no cover letter.
The patch series must have a base set with git series
base, to identify the series of patches to request a pull
of.
url URL of the repository to pull from.
tag Name of a tag or branch to request a pull from.
-p|--patch
Include a patch showing the combined change made by
all the patches in the series. This can help a
reviewer see the effect of pulling the series.
git series start name
Start a new patch series named name.
git series status
Show the status of the current patch series.
This shows any changes staged for the next git series
commit, changes in the current working copy but not staged
for the next git series commit, and hints about the next
commands to run.
git series unadd change
Remove changes from the next git series commit, undoing
git series add.
The changes remain in the current working version of the
series.
change...
Changes to remove: any combination of "series",
"base", and "cover".
