The above is very bad. It makes life hard after the next upstream release of XFree86 happens and we need to figure out which things stolen from HEAD we can drop. (Yes, diff is supposed to recognize already-applied patches, but it's not perfect, and it certainly can't be relied upon when changes have been made subsequent to the ones we steal.) We want to be careful about this sort of thing because regressions are bad. Hopefully we all understand why. A different format we find in the same file is better: 648 branden (xc/lib/Xi/XExtInt.c, 648 branden xc/lib/Xi/XGetVers.c, 648 branden xc/lib/Xi/XIint.h): 648 branden 282. Fixing deadlock in libXi - when is called _XLockDisplay() twice - 648 branden when calling a Xi function that calls XGetExtensionVersion() (Bugzilla 648 branden #260, Bastien Nocera, Owen Taylor). 648 branden 760 branden (xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/lnx_io.c, 760 branden xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/lnx_kbd.c,): 760 branden Build fix when using Linux kernel 2.6 headers. (Marc La France, via 760 branden Michel Dänzer) 760 branden 891 branden (xc/nls/locale.alias): 891 branden Add ko_KR.EUC-KR (Jungshik Shin). 891 branden That's better. We update the patch descriptions in chronological order, identify the files changed, and grab the text of the upstream commit logs, which is particularly handy for grepping a mailbox full of upstream CVS commit mails. We might do better still, and identify the revision of each file from which we're stealing patches. Here's a suggested format: xc/lib/Xi/[EMAIL PROTECTED] xc/lib/Xi/[EMAIL PROTECTED] xc/lib/Xi/[EMAIL PROTECTED] 282. Fixing deadlock in libXi - when is called _XLockDisplay() twice - when calling a Xi function that calls XGetExtensionVersion() (Bugzilla #260, Bastien Nocera, Owen Taylor). Here we use Subversion-style @rev syntax for CVS's abominable per-file revision numbers. Comments? -- G.
