------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Aug 24 02:04:48 -0700 2006 ------- As Ause and I discussed off-line, dmake create_patch (see <http://external.openoffice.org/ext_dmake.html>) has two problems that lead to generated patches that are "too large" (and thus hard to diff against older revisions of those patches): 1 The used diff behaves differently on Linux and Solaris with respect to the order of files processed (so that patch chunks can show up permutated in two revisions of a patch). 2 The resulting patch (needlessly) contains the dates of the processed files (which typically differ for different runs of dmake create_patch, so that the resulting patches needlessly differ in those lines). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
