Package: quilt
Version: 0.60-2
Severity: important

Hi,

this is the companion bug for the same problem in dpkg-source --commit
reported as: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=689193

The severity in quilt is higher because this is quilt’s primary
objective (managing diffs) and the impact of unsorted patches on
maintainer and reviewer time is nōn-neglegible.

Please sort the order of files in diffs (on “quilt refresh”) by
ascending order of the pathnames involved (do make sure to *not*
use the collation but only the octet values).

I can probably cobble up a patch, should that be needed, but did
not yet do so as I’d have to get familiar with quilt’s internals
first.

Thanks!
