Indeed. But why would you use such a tool in combination with a git
repository? It makes no sense.

Then, please don't complain that you have to do everything on your 
own and nobody helps you ;) I would prefer that changes are done by 
the board maintainers and not by the custodian, though.

 Btw please use git to show that you only rename the file without change

I'm not sure that this works for non-custodians. Custodians can do 
git-rename and then send a patch to the mailing list. When a custodian 
sends such a patch, it is mainly for review only, and not to be 
applied somewhere (because it is already in git).

This results then in something

cpu/sa1100/{interrupts.c = timer.c} |5 +-
rename cpu/arm925t/{interrupts.c = timer.c} (99%)

(from [1]). But this is only what normally 'diffstat' generates and 
what is totally ignored by 'patch' . I.e. in the part of the patch 
which is handled by 'patch' this info is totally missing. As far as I 
know 'patch' itself can't deal with file rename any other way than 
remove one file and create the other one with

--- u-boot-main.orig/cpu/arm_cortexa8/omap3/interrupts.c
+++ /dev/null

--- /dev/null
+++ u-boot-main/cpu/arm_cortexa8/omap3/timer.c

So it's my understanding that non-custodians have to send a patch 
which can be applied everywhere by everyone by 'patch' utility, i.e. 
the part 'patch' deals with contains all information necessary.

Do I miss anything?

Best regards

Dirk

Right, until someone fixes that. :-)

Which I suppose could be a problem if git am refuses to accept the 
patch and the normal patch command needs to be used to resolve the 
conflict (I really wish git would treat it more like a merge from a UI 
perspective, even if it doesn't look that way internally).

In which way is this rtestricted to custodians? everybody can do the

statistics.

We don't use plain old patch, we use git tools (like git am). And
these do understand about rename patches.

Yes, you are missing that we use git these days, and git is more
powerful.
