I have tried to follow this thread as best as I can and here are some questions that I did see an answer to.
1. If a patchadd fails down the path what happens ? i.e. patch A depends on patch B which depends on patch C. After all the dependency checking etc. you start to add patch C, then patch B and then patch A. However patchadd of patch A fails. What happens ? Are patches B and C removed ? 2. Can one kill/abort this midway ? If so is consistency guaranteed ? Also could I requrest that the design for this be in a single document that can be referred to ? I am currently in the process of writing the architecture document for Caiman and it would sure be helpful if I could include a pointer to the design document for recursive patching.
