Fixed, on bugfix. https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs/org-mode.git/commit/?id=7c929e9d8 > I failed to apply the patch (perhaps because the file is in a different > place, /lisp/org/ instead of /lisp/ ) however making that change > manually and rebuilding fixed the problem. > > For future reference is there a resource that explains how to apply > patches for testing?

We develop Org mode separately from Emacs in a different git repository. See https://orgmode.org/manual/Installation.html or "source code" link in https://orgmode.org/ My patch was against Org repository, not Emacs. Applying a patch is the same as with any other git repo. We might drop a reference to some online documentation on how to use git, but (1) I am not sure what should be the place to put such a reference; (2) If you are unsure how to apply patches, you could ask, and I would offer another way to test things. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
