Hi Denk,

        It seems that "git am" doesn't work for me.

        The steps are:

        1. Save the patch as txt file in outlook and copy to u-boot directory.
        2. Use git am to apply the patch.

When you have resolved this problem run "git am -i --resolved".
If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git am -i --skip".
To restore the original branch and stop patching run "git am -i --abort".

        What's your git version?
        We're using 1.6.0.4.
        I don't know if it is the git version that cause the problem.

        Thanks~~

Yours

You must be doing something wrong, then.

I re-tested it, it applies cleanly:

Eventually the patch gets mangled (white space corrupted) this way.

Try using "git am", and avoid the copy & paste - save the page as text file 
instead.

Best regards,
