I distinctly remember having to add -E on SunOS, and I would not be at all surprised if, well, anyone else who doesn't use GNU patch had the same behavior. Therefore I think we should unconditionally add -E. > (change a test diff to use /dev/nul instead of > /dev/nul, f.e., to see the effect - the file is no longer removed on > "compliant" systems). I assume you meant "/dev/nul instead of /dev/null" there? By the way, standard English is "e.g." not "f.e." It expands to "exempli gratia". Yes, that's Latin. I blame the French. zw _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
