The patch needs to be just your changes. Make sure you have the most recent
copy of the repo and just generate a patch off your changes. You don't even
have to commit them, just make the change locally and then generate a patch
file off the diff:
{{git diff conf/cassandra.yaml > 14798-trunk.patch}}

> Given some recent community interactions on Stack Overflow, Nate McCall asked
> me provide some stronger wording on partitioner selection. Specifically, in
> further discouraging people from using the other partitioners (namely, the
> ByteOrderedPartitioner).
> Right now, this is the language that I'm leaning toward:
> {{# The partitioner is responsible for distributing groups of rows (by}}
> {{# partition key) across nodes in the cluster. The partitioner can NOT be}}
> {{# changed without reloading all data. If you are upgrading, you should set
> this}}
> {{# to the same partitioner that you are currently using.}}
> {{#}}
> {{# The default partitioner is the Murmur3Partitioner. Older partitioners}}
> {{# such as the RandomPartitioner, ByteOrderedPartitioner, and}}
> {{# OrderPreservingPartitioner have been included for backward compatibility
> only.}}
> {{# For new clusters, you should NOT change this value.}}
> {{#}}
> {{partitioner: org.apache.cassandra.dht.Murmur3Partitioner }}
> I'm open to suggested improvements.
