Hi all, As of now, at https://docs.google.com/a/hortonworks.com/document/d/1hz7qjGKkNeckMibEs67ZmAa2kxjie0zkG6H_IiC2RgA/edit?pli=1 we have the following patch naming convension: For trunk, AMBARI-<ID>.patch[.VERSION] For release branches, AMBARI-<ID>_[BRANCH].patch[.VERSION] where [.VERSION] is optional but should be added for revised patches.
The issue with this format is that software that makes use of file extensions instead of header magic does not recognize *.patch.1 files as patch files. For example, IntelliJ IDEA refuses to apply patch (the OK button is disabled). I'm aware of git-apply command, but using IDE often simplifies process. How about changing naming conversion (e.g. other Apache project: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SENTRY/How+to+Contribute#HowtoContribute-ProvidingPatches )? -- Thanks, Dmitry -- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE NOTICE: This message is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is confidential, privileged and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
