if I have a project.
Someone sends me a patch relative to a directory below the project's
root directory.
E.g. with a layout like
cruisecontrol/main/docs
cruisecontrol/main/src
cruisecontrol/main/test
cruisecontrol/...
if I am in cruisecontrol/main
with a patch relative to main, quilf fold fails while patch works.
Is that a limitation to quilt fold? Or am I doing something wrong?
I think this is just a consequence of quilt internals. The quilt setup
functions normally cd to the top directory and record the directory
where the command was invoked in the SUBDIR environment variable. So
all commands actually run from the top directory, and have to explicitly
take SUBDIR into account if they wish to.
So, the question is, is this a bug (can't create patches relative to
subdirectories), or a feature (don't have to cd to the top to fold in a
patch)?
