-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.
