Hi Josh! A couple of ideas, I hope these will be helpful: I often need to move series between unrelated trees. I sometimes use cherry-pick for that (if they are from my tree) or am (if not). How about "git series am" - get patch series from email, including a cover letter, and create a series from that? And how about "git series cherry-pick" - to apply series to the current head? Kind of going in the reverse direction from git series format. -- MST
