diff -urP from the root of the project is usually ideal, or better still the output of "svn diff" or "svk diff". Both of those reduce the maintainer's work to cd /path/to/project/checkout patch -p0 <patchfile make test svk commit which makes things much more likely to get applied :) "I've attached this four line diff -c with no filename and two other files you need to copy into t/", OTOH, is likely to get it ignored or a re-send asked for. _______________________________________________ List: [email protected] Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
