SYNOPSIS
        # import a module:

        % git-cpan clone Foo::Bar
        % cd Foo-Bar

        # hack and submit to RT

        # it's probably best to work in a branch
        % git checkout -b blah

        ... hack lib/Foo/Bar.pm ...

        % git commit -am "blah"
        % git-cpan sendpatch 

        # update the module
        # this automatically rebases the current branch
        % git-cpan update

DESCRIPTION
    Git::CPAN::Patch provides a suite of git commands aimed at making
    trivially easy the process of grabbing any distribution off CPAN,
    stuffing it in a local git repository and, once gleeful hacking has been
    perpetrated, sending back patches to its maintainer.
