Just a small (but important) thing.  All the tty series patches look like this:

<summary>

From: <author>

<message>
.
.


When I import these, they will all look like they are authored by you and
use the file name as the one line summary :-( .  "Git quilt-import"
expects more mail-like patches like:

From: <author>
Subject: <summary>

..

So if there is some easy transform you could do on these, it would be
good.  (There is only one patch that has "Subject:" at the start of the
<summary>.)  (Subject: followed by From: is ok as well, so 'prepend
"Subject: " to first line and remove following blank line' would probably
get you very close.)
