Hi Mark,
The quilt-import.log from 20140829 says:
$ git am --patch-format=mbox ../quilt/rd-docs/001-docum-use-subdiry-avoid-builtin.patch
and in the 20140905 git tree it says:
$ git am ../quilt/rd-docs/001-docum-use-subdiry-avoid-builtin.patch Patch format detection failed.
Are you using Stephen's scripts? Why would his tree apply patches with --patch-format=mbox while the later trees did not use that git-am option?
Thanks.
