All good. The existing tools are designed to work well in the
following workflow:
$ git format-patch --mbox master..pu
$ cat 000[234]-*.txt >to-apply
$ git checkout master
$ git applymbox to-apply
$ mv .git/refs/heads/pu .git/refs/heads/old-pu
$ git checkout -b pu master
$ git applymbox 0001-*.txt
to advance "master" with selected commits, possibly reordered,
from the "pu" branch, and rebase the "pu" branch using the
remaining commits.
I would like to know a bit about "git format-patch" adding extra
info that you needed to get rid of. It shouldn't be necessary.
