SYNOPSIS
git mailsplit [-b] [-f<nn>] [-d<prec>] [--keep-cr] [--mboxrd]
                -o<directory> [--] [(<mbox>|<Maildir>)…]
DESCRIPTION
Splits a mbox file or a Maildir into a list of files: "0001" "0002" .. in the specified directory so you can process them further from there.
| Important | Maildir splitting relies upon filenames being sorted to output patches in the correct order. | 
OPTIONS
- <mbox>
- 
Mbox file to split. If not given, the mbox is read from the standard input. 
- <Maildir>
- 
Root of the Maildir to split. This directory should contain the cur, tmp and new subdirectories. 
- -o<directory>
- 
Directory in which to place the individual messages. 
- -b
- 
If any file doesn’t begin with a From line, assume it is a single mail message instead of signaling error. 
- -d<prec>
- 
Instead of the default 4 digits with leading zeros, different precision can be specified for the generated filenames. 
- -f<nn>
- 
Skip the first <nn> numbers, for example if -f3 is specified, start the numbering with 0004. 
- --keep-cr
- 
Do not remove \rfrom lines ending with\r\n.
- --mboxrd
- 
Input is of the "mboxrd" format and "^>+From " line escaping is reversed.
