Hello,
Hello Seth,
I think that quilt might be just the thing for me to track patches against a project that I do not have commit rights to that uses svn. I'm running OS X 10.4 with a number of fink packages installed and haven't yet been able to get quilt working. Q1: Can anyone confirm that quilt will work on OS X 10.4
Yep, been using it for a few months now.
My first attempt gave me a quilt that complained about bad date format. My date command was not gnu, but shouldn't the configure script have told me this?
It still needs help with --with-date=..., --with-find=... and others.
After installing coreutils to get a better date command, I get no overt complaints, but when I pop a patch, I don't see any message about "Restoring .." any of the changed files. The result is that if I create a patch, edit a file, refresh, and then pop, the modified file remains modified.
I use darwinports rather than fink, but that shouldn't make too much difference.
The example1.test fails I think for this reason. So... If I can provide more detailed info, please let me know.
You need this patch: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/quilt-dev/2005-09/msg00282.html If you go through the thread that message appears in, you might find the other patches I posted in that series to be useful for OSX too...
