<p>I recently covered how to <a href="/git-patches">work with git email patches in Evolution on Linux</a>, so I thought it would make sense to walk through a similar workflow for those using Apple Mail on MacOS. The idea is essentially the same, with just a little extra work involved.</p>
<h2 id="create-a-patches-mailbox">Create a &#8220;Patches&#8221; Mailbox</h2>
<p>The first thing you&#8217;ll need to do is make a new <code>Patches</code> mailbox folder inside your existing mail account. Once done, your default Mail sidebar should look similar to the following:</p>
+<p><img src="/public/images/apple-mail-1.png" alt="The Apple Mail sidebar with the Patches folder present" /></p>
+<p><em>The Apple Mail sidebar with the &#8220;Patches&#8221; folder present</em></p>
<h2 id="applying-patches">Applying Patches</h2>
<p>Now navigate to the email message containing a <code>git</code> patch. Right-click and select <em>Move to</em> &#62; <em>Patches</em>. Now in the sidebar, right-click your <em>Patches</em> folder and select <em>Export Mailbox&#8230;</em>. You&#8217;ll be prompted to save this folder locally. I suggest having a top-level folder named <strong>Patches</strong> to make things consistent.</p>
<p>Inside this folder you should see something similar to the following structure:</p>
+<p><img src="/public/images/apple-mail-2.png" alt="The contents of the saved Patches mailbox folder" /></p>
+<p><em>The contents of the saved Patches mailbox folder</em></p>
<p>Once saved, open your terminal, navigate to the project you wish to apply this new patch to:</p>
<pre><code>cd my-path&#47;very-cool-project
</code></pre>
