From 7c496280104e02cb2a02dbbe0caf3510e0e87e42 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2007 13:35:13 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] git-format-patch -3 This teaches "git-format-patch" to honor the --max-count parameter revision traversal machinery takes, so that you can say "git-format-patch -3" to process the three topmost commits from the current HEAD (or "git-format-patch -2 topic" to name a specific branch).
