 Hi all,

Sorry if this is a basic question. How do i take patches from e-mail?  for example git send mail sends patches as e-mail

if someone wants to apply that patch to his branch then how do i get that in . patch format and then use patch -p1 *.patch  or is there something im missing here? thanks.

If its a public mailing list then I use a newsgroup reader that will allow me to download the entire patch email as file and then use the git apply on it.
