``pwclient git-am #``, where # is the patch's number. (This fails with
certain patches that contain form-feeds, due to a limitation of the protocol
underlying ``pwclient``.)

+ Another way to apply patches directly from patchwork which supports applying
+ patch series is to use the ``git-pw`` program. It can be obtained with
+ ``pip install git-pw``. Alternative installation instructions and general
+ documentation can be found at
+ https://patchwork.readthedocs.io/projects/git-pw/en/latest/. You need to
+ use your openvswitch patchwork login or create one at
+ https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/register/. The following can then be set on
+ the command line with ``git config`` or through a ``.gitconfig`` like this::
+
+ [pw]
+ server=https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/api/1.0
+ project=openvswitch
+ username=<username>
+ password=<password>
+
+ Patch series can be listed with ``git-pw series list`` and applied with
+ ``git-pw series apply #``, where # is the series number. Individual patches
+ can be applied with ``git-pw patch apply #``, where # is the patch number.
