+=========
+
+NAME
+----
+git-am - Apply a series of patches in a mailbox
+
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+'git-am' [--signoff] [--dotest=<dir>] [--utf8] [--binary] [--3way] <mbox>...
+'git-am' [--skip | --resolved]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Splits mail messages in a mailbox into commit log message,
+authorship information and patches, and applies them to the
+current branch.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+--signoff::
+	Add `Signed-off-by:` line to the commit message, using
+	the committer identity of yourself.
+
+--dotest=<dir>::
+	Instead of `.dotest` directory, use <dir> as a working
+	area to store extracted patches.
+
+--utf8, --keep::
+	Pass `-u` and `-k` flags to `git-mailinfo` (see
+	gitlink:git-mailinfo[1]).
+
+--binary::
+	Pass `--allow-binary-replacement` flag to `git-apply`
+	(see gitlink:git-apply[1]).
+
+--3way::
+	When the patch does not apply cleanly, fall back on
+	3-way merge, if the patch records the identity of blobs
+	it is supposed to apply to, and we have those blobs
+	locally.
+
+--skip::
+	Skip the current patch.  This is only meaningful when
+	restarting an aborted patch.
+
+--interactive::
+	Run interactively, just like git-applymbox.
+
+--resolved::
+	After a patch failure (e.g. attempting to apply
+	conflicting patch), the user has applied it by hand and
+	the index file stores the result of the application.
+	Make a commit using the authorship and commit log
+	extracted from the e-mail message and the current index
+	file, and continue.
+
+DISCUSSION
+----------
+
+When initially invoking it, you give it names of the mailboxes
+to crunch.  Upon seeing the first patch that does not apply, it
+aborts in the middle, just like 'git-applymbox' does.  You can
+recover from this in one of two ways:
+
+. skip the current one by re-running the command with '--skip'
+  option.
+
+. hand resolve the conflict in the working directory, and update
+  the index file to bring it in a state that the patch should
+  have produced.  Then run the command with '--resolved' option.
+
+The command refuses to process new mailboxes while `.dotest`
+directory exists, so if you decide to start over from scratch,
+run `rm -f .dotest` before running the command with mailbox
+names.
