You mean something like this: p1 = subprocess.Popen([backend.command()], stdout=subprocess.PIPE) subprocess.Popen(["git", "fast-import", "--quiet"] + gitopts, cwd=outdir, stdin=p1.stdout) Assuming gitopts is a list rather than a string. (care must be taken with backend.command() also) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
