The standard procedure would be to create a ticket on trac, attach the patch to it, and assign to the osmarender component. Then optionally poke a relevant person often enough to get it committed. > > So, at the risk I'm going to be told I smell, can anyone point a newbie to > SVN to a beginner's guide on how to either amend and commit changes, or apply > patch files?

Make sure you check out the relevant tree from svn - svn co http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/.... Edit the file. then svn ci file_path Make sure you svn up before your next edits. -- Regards, Thomas Wood (Edgemaster) _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
