Hello, also from the debian BTS. I dunno what to think about it. I never forked any patch, so I've no idea about merging them afterward ;)
Thanks for your time, Mt. PS: as usual, it'd be cool if you could keep both the list and the bug in CC. ----- Forwarded message from Peter Chubb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Subject: Bug#298788: Desirable new feature: quilt merge X-Debian-PR-Package: quilt From: Peter Chubb <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2005 09:50:48 +1100 X-Mailer: VM 7.17 under 21.4 (patch 17) "Jumbo Shrimp" XEmacs Lucid Package: quilt Version: 0.39-1 Severity: wishlist Quilt currently has the ability to `fork' a patch, but no simple ability to fold two patches into one. I'd find it useful to be able to merge the top two patches into one. quilt fold doesn't do what I want, as it imports an external patch into an existing patch. Something like f=`quilt files` t=`quilt top` quilt pop for i in $f do quilt add $i done cat patches/$t | quilt fold ed patches/series <<-! /^$t\>/d w q ! is the nearest I've come to what I want... the tricky bit is in the part of the patch before the patch proper. I'd just want to concatenate them, and let the user edit the patch file to fix it up afterwards. -- Dr Peter Chubb http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au [EMAIL PROTECTED] You are lost in a maze of BitKeeper repositories, all slightly different. ----- End forwarded message -----
