Package: quilt
Version: 0.48-7
Severity: important


Hi!

Out of fun I just tried to create a quilt patchset on a binary file.  I
didn't expected it to work, but to my surprise I didn't got any error or
warning message.  What I did was basically the following:

quilt new test ; quilt add $binaryfile ; cp $differentbinaryfile
$binaryfile ; quilt refresh

and voila!  I had a "patches/test" file.

However, looking at it, it just contained "Binary files
a/tutorial-part3.map and b/tutorial-part3.map differ" which is the output
of diff.

I would have expected quilt to actually error out.  Looking a bit further,
found that diff actually exits with a non-zero exit code, when diffing
binary files:

$ diff $differentbinaryfile $binaryfile > /dev/null ; echo $?
2

Which makes we wonder, if quilt actually minds the exit code of the diff it
calls.


Best regards,
  Alexander
