Subject: My current quilt 0.21 :)

Hi,
I have copied my current version to http://www.suse.de/~agruen/quilt/.
Should we use this version to reload the CVS? I think we are nearing
the stable development phase, so now this seems to make some sense.
There are surely many new bugs. Please help shake them out :)
I also didn't merge several improvements. Would it be possible that
people contribute patches for the things they want included? I really
don't have so much time to work on features I don't need so much.
Here's a list of changes (some probably forgotten):
- There now is a quilt wrapper script. All the individual
commands are run from this script. This is a pain for frequently
used commands like push and pop. (I am using shell aliases
for some of them, which works well.)
- The scripts have been split into many separate commands that
are intended to do only a few things each.
$ quilt
Usage: quilt command [-h] ...
Commands are:
add files patches refresh setup
applied import pop remove top
delete new previous rest
diff next push series
- .gz and .bz2 compressed patches are now suported.
- Quilt setup takes a series file, unpacks archive(s), and
copies patches in.
- For those working with RPMs, quilt setup can process an RPM
spec file and produces the series file from that (by running the
%prep section).
- Quilt diff can diff a specified patch, diff the changes
done relative to after a patch, and create combined diffs.
- Quilt series shows which patches are applied,
which is the topmost, and which are unapplied:
$ quilt series -v
+ samba-2.2.4-smbadduser
+ samba-2.2.3-smbsh
+ samba-2.2.6-doc
+ samba-2.2.6-pdbedit
+ samba-2.2.7a-removeldap
= samba-2.2.5-linkvfs
samba-2.2.7-nettime
samba-2.2.7a-acl-mapping-fixes
samba-2.2.7a-glibc
- Quilt files shows which files are new/removed by a patch (none
are removed here):
$ quilt files -v
fs/Config.in
fs/Makefile
+ fs/posix_acl.c
+ include/linux/posix_acl.h
- Quilt import still sucks. Some ideas are found in the TODO.
So long,
Andreas.
