10SYNOPSIS
11--------
12[verse]
13'stg' sink [--to=<target>] [--nopush] [<patches>]
14
15DESCRIPTION
16-----------
17
18This is the opposite operation of stglink:float[]: move the specified
19patches down the stack. It is for example useful to group stable
20patches near the bottom of the stack, where they are less likely to be
21impacted by the push of another patch, and from where they can be more
22easily committed or pushed.
23
24If no patch is specified on command-line, the current patch gets sunk.
25By default patches are sunk to the bottom of the stack, but the
26'--to' option allows to place them under any applied patch.
27
28Sinking internally involves popping all patches (or all patches
29including <target patch>), then pushing the patches to sink, and then
30(unless '--nopush' is also given) pushing back into place the
31formerly-applied patches.

34OPTIONS
35-------

42--nopush::
43-n::
44 Do not push back on the stack the formerly-applied patches.
