| 5 | ---- |
| 6 | git-mailsplit - Simple UNIX mbox splitter program |
| 7 | |
| 8 | SYNOPSIS |
| 9 | -------- |
| 10 | [verse] |
| 11 | 'git mailsplit' [-b] [-f<nn>] [-d<prec>] [--keep-cr] [--mboxrd] |
| 12 | -o<directory> [--] [(<mbox>|<Maildir>)...] |
| 13 | |
| 14 | DESCRIPTION |
| 15 | ----------- |
| 16 | Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" .. in the |
| 17 | specified directory so you can process them further from there. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | IMPORTANT: Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output |
| 20 | patches in the correct order. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | OPTIONS |
| 23 | ------- |
| 24 | <mbox>:: |
| 25 | Mbox file to split. If not given, the mbox is read from |
| 26 | the standard input. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | <Maildir>:: |
| 29 | Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the cur, tmp |
| 30 | and new subdirectories. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | -o<directory>:: |
| 33 | Directory in which to place the individual messages. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | -b:: |
| 36 | If any file doesn't begin with a From line, assume it is a |
| 37 | single mail message instead of signaling an error. |
| 38 | |
| 39 | -d<prec>:: |
| 40 | Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros, |
| 41 | different precision can be specified for the generated |
| 42 | filenames. |
| 43 | |
| 44 | -f<nn>:: |
| 45 | Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified, |
| 46 | start the numbering with 0004. |
| 47 | |
| 48 | --keep-cr:: |
| 49 | Do not remove `\r` from lines ending with `\r\n`. |
| 50 | |
| 51 | --mboxrd:: |
| 52 | Input is of the "mboxrd" format and "^>+From " line escaping is |
| 53 | reversed. |
