They are logically organized as a stack, and you can - apply, un-apply, refresh them easily by traveling into the stack (push/pop). - . - Quilt is good for managing additional patches applied to a package received - as a tarball or maintained in another version control system. The stacked - organization proved to be efficient for the management of very large patch - sets (more than hundred patches). As matter of fact, it was designed by and - for linux kernel hackers (Andrew Morton, from the -mm branch, is the - original author), and its main use by the current upstream maintainer is to - manage the (hundreds of) patches against the kernel made for the SUSE - distribution. - . - This package completely integrates into the CDBS, allowing maintainers - using this new paradigm for their packaging script to benefit of the quilt - comfort when editing their diff against upstream. The package also provide - some basic support for the fool not using CDBS (yet). - . - http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/quilt is the current best approximation - of an upstream homepage. |
