Yes, I'm aware of the development of git-lore-mbox, but I'd rather just
pull directly from a developer's git repo than create branches on my
computer.  I /already/ have my own script to extract patches and
apply/paste/staple them onto a git tree, and xfsprogs already has
scripts to automate porting of libxfs change from the kernel.

My goal here is more to change the balance of who does what work a
little bit back towards patch authors, than it is to spend less time
putting together git trees.  I mean, most of you already use git already
anyway, right?  :)
