So how do I merge them? If you were merging your own patch on a different system, what is
the full command you would use?
I am running on 3.5.13 sources so I make all my
patches under the 3.5.13 code. ( I make sure not to add any conflicts with the
current GIT head), I just use svn diff and pipe the output into a
file.
Yes, I remember you are running on 3.5.13. About half the time the patches need some
tweaks to merge to the GIT sources. :) That part I deal with easily. The manual editing
seems backwards. I don't know how to merge your patches. I just need to now the
appropriate command syntax.
I just used:
calvin@boxi:~/builds/tde/main/tdebase$ patch -p0 < fixedup.patch
and it worked (except for a failed hunk, no idea why, it's just two lines
and I am attaching the new patch which should work.
