The Linux Manuals (man pages) document is an important part of Linux documents. Linux Manuals are organized as several sections. Each section has a group of commands for a specific area in Linux usage, administration or development.
NAME stg-sink – Send patches deeper down the stack SYNOPSIS stg sink[-t<target patch>][-n][–][<patches>] DESCRIPTION This is the opposite operation of stg-float(1): move the specified patches down the stack. It is for example useful to group stable patches near the bottom of the stack, where they are less likely to be impacted by the push of…
NAME stg-show – Show the commit corresponding to a patch SYNOPSIS stg show[options][–][<patch1>][<patch2>][<patch3>..<patch4>] DESCRIPTION Show the commit log and the diff corresponding to the given patches. The output is similar to that generated by git show. OPTIONS -b BRANCH, –branch BRANCH Use BRANCH instead of the default branch. -a, –applied Show the applied patches. -u,…
NAME stg-series – Print the patch series SYNOPSIS stg series[options][–][<patch – range>] DESCRIPTION Show all the patches in the series, or just those in the given range, ordered from top to bottom. The applied patches are prefixed with a + (except the current patch, which is prefixed with a >), the unapplied patches with a…
NAME stg-reset – Reset the patch stack to an earlier state SYNOPSIS stg reset[options][–][<state>[<patchnames>]] DESCRIPTION Reset the patch stack to an earlier state. If no state is specified, reset only the changes in the worktree. The state is specified with a commit id from a stack log; "stg log" lets you view this log, and…
NAME stg-repair – Fix StGit metadata if branch was modified with git commands SYNOPSIS stg repair DESCRIPTION If you modify an StGit stack (branch) with some git commands — such as commit, pull, merge, and rebase — you will leave the StGit metadata in an inconsistent state. In that situation, you have two options: 1….
NAME stg-rename – Rename a patch SYNOPSIS stg rename[options][–][oldpatch]<newpatch> DESCRIPTION Rename <oldpatch> into <newpatch> in a series. If <oldpatch> is not given, the top-most patch will be renamed. OPTIONS -b BRANCH, –branch BRANCH use BRANCH instead of the default one. STGIT Part of the StGit suite – see stg(1) Index
NAME stg-refresh – Generate a new commit for the current patch SYNOPSIS stg refresh[options][–][ < files or dirs > ] DESCRIPTION Include the latest work tree and index changes in the current patch. This command generates a new git commit object for the patch; the old commit is no longer visible. Refresh will warn if…
NAME stg-redo – Undo the last undo operation SYNOPSIS stg redo DESCRIPTION If the last command was an undo, reset the patch stack to the state it had before the undo. Consecutive invocations of "stg redo" will undo the effects of consecutive invocations of "stg undo". It is an error to run "stg redo" if…
NAME stg-rebase – Move the stack base to another point in history SYNOPSIS stg rebase[options][–]<new – base – id> DESCRIPTION Pop all patches from current stack, move the stack base to the given <new-base-id> and push the patches back. If you experience merge conflicts, resolve the problem and continue the rebase by executing the following…
NAME stg-push – Push one or more patches onto the stack SYNOPSIS stg push[options][–][<patch1>][<patch2>][<patch3>..<patch4>] DESCRIPTION Push one or more patches (defaulting to the first unapplied one) onto the stack. The push operation allows patch reordering by commuting them with the three-way merge algorithm. If there are conflicts while pushing a patch, those conflicts are written…
NAME stg-pull – Pull changes from a remote repository SYNOPSIS stg pull[options][–][<repository>] DESCRIPTION Pull the latest changes from the given remote repository (defaulting to branch.<name>.remote, or origin if not set). This command works by popping all the patches from the stack, pulling the changes in the parent repository, setting the base of the stack to…
NAME stg-publish – Push the stack changes to a merge-friendly branch SYNOPSIS stg publish[options][–][branch] DESCRIPTION This command commits a set of changes on a separate (called public) branch based on the modifications of the given or current stack. The history of the public branch is not re-written, making it merge-friendly and feasible for publishing. The…
NAME stg-prev – Print the name of the previous patch SYNOPSIS stg prev DESCRIPTION Print the name of the previous patch. OPTIONS -b BRANCH, –branch BRANCH Use BRANCH instead of the default branch. STGIT Part of the StGit suite – see stg(1) Index
NAME stg-pop – Pop one or more patches from the stack SYNOPSIS stg pop[options][–][<patch1>][<patch2>][<patch3>..<patch4>] DESCRIPTION Pop the topmost patch or a range of patches from the stack. The command fails if there are conflicts or local changes (and –keep was not specified). A series of pop and push operations are performed so that only the…
NAME stg-pick – Import a patch from a different branch or a commit object SYNOPSIS stg pick[options][–]([<patch1>][<patch2>][<patch3>..<patch4>]) | <commit> DESCRIPTION Import one or more patches from a different branch or a commit object into the current series. By default, the name of the imported patch is used as the name of the current patch. It…
NAME stg-patches – Show the applied patches modifying a file SYNOPSIS stg patches[options][–][ < files or dirs > ] DESCRIPTION Show the applied patches modifying the given files. Without arguments, it shows the patches affected by the local tree modifications. The –diff option also lists the patch log and the diff for the given files….
NAME stg-next – Print the name of the next patch SYNOPSIS stg next DESCRIPTION Print the name of the next patch. OPTIONS -b BRANCH, –branch BRANCH Use BRANCH instead of the default branch. STGIT Part of the StGit suite – see stg(1) Index
NAME stg-new – Create a new, empty patch SYNOPSIS stg new[options][–][<name>] DESCRIPTION Create a new, empty patch on the current stack. The new patch is created on top of the currently applied patches, and is made the new top of the stack. Uncommitted changes in the work tree are not included in the patch —…
NAME stg-mail – Send a patch or series of patches by e-mail SYNOPSIS stg mail[options][–][<patch1>][<patch2>][<patch3>..<patch4>] DESCRIPTION Send a patch or a range of patches by e-mail using the SMTP server specified by the stgit.smtpserver configuration option, or the –smtp-server command line option.

NAME stg-log – Display the patch changelog SYNOPSIS stg log[options][–][<patches>] DESCRIPTION List the history of the patch stack: the stack log.
