Description-en: manage stacks of patches in a git repository
stgit provides similar functionality to quilt
(i.e. pushing/popping patches to/from a stack) on top of git.
.
These operations are performed using git commands and the patches
are stored as git commit objects, allowing easy merging of the stgit
patches into other repositories using standard git functionality.
