Cool. I've been using this for many years. Before that, I used quilt[1], and before that, Andrew Morton's patch scripts[2]. It's a great workflow that makes you look like a genius who rarely makes mistakes. Absolutely vital if you need to maintain a set of patches against a bunch of branched source code (e.g. maintaining an open source driver with variants upstream (linus's plus stable kernels) and also for various distro kernels.) This was my main use case for years, but I still use it even for things that don't fit that pattern, just because it's convenient to do so. Sure everything that stgit does can be done with git by itself (duh, that's what stgit is doing under the hood), but I find it's a lot easier with stgit.
