+=item git-debrebase make-patches [--quiet-would-amend]
+
+Generate patches in debian/patches/
+representing the changes made to upstream files.
+
+It is not normally necessary to run this command explicitly.
+When uploading to Debian,
+dgit and git-debrebase
+will cooperate to regenerate patches as necessary.
+When working with pure git remotes,
+the patches are not needed.
+
+Normally git-debrebase make-patches will
+require a laundered branch.
+(A laundered branch does not contain any patches.)
+But if there are already some patches made by
+git-debrebase make-patches,
+and all that has happened is that more
+changes to upstream files have been committed,
+running it again can add the missing patches.
+
+If the patches implied by the current branch
+are not a simple superset of those already in debian/patches,
+make-patches will fail with exit status 7,
+and an error message.
+(The message can be suppress with --quiet-would-amend.)
