Oh I can easily understand! > Hope you can manage to review the patch though, because it is difficult to > separate the cleanups now. When I need to split a patch into pieces, usually what I do is that I revert it, re-apply it without committing, then "git add -p", validate all the hunks to be taken as the first patch (ie here the cleanups), commit, then commit the rest as a separate one. It seems to me that the fix is in the last few hunks though I'm not sure yet. Thanks, Willy
