I've sent this to the list 2 days ago, but I can't find it in the list archives, so I'm sending it again without files attached. I apologize if this is a duplicate. One should be able to reproduce this with the current PR files, but if not, I can provide them.
I've hit a strange error while trying to apply a patch from github here: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/965 965.patch:452: trailing whitespace. 965.patch:559: space before tab in indent. -o $(SHLIBNAME_FULL) \ 965.patch:560: space before tab in indent. $$ALLSYMSFLAGS $$SHOBJECTS $$NOALLSYMSFLAGS $$LIBDEPS; \ 965.patch:564: space before tab in indent. -o $(SHLIBNAME_FULL) \ 965.patch:2334: trailing whitespace. error: package/libs/openssl/patches/100-Configure-afalg-support.patch: No such file or directory error: package/libs/openssl/patches/110-openwrt_targets.patch: No such file or directory error: package/libs/openssl/patches/120-fix_link_segfault.patch: No such file or directory error: package/libs/openssl/patches/1.1.0/100-Configure-afalg-support.patch: No such file or directory error: package/libs/openssl/patches/1.1.0/110-openwrt_targets.patch: No such file or directory If you get the patch file from https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/965.patch and apply it with git apply, it fails. If I apply the same file with patch -p1, it works fine. I've tried it with git 2.16.4 and 2.19, and they both fail with the same error, and at least 2 more people have confirmed it. git apply fails even when using git format-patch -13 --stdout as a source, so it is not github doing something weird. The file is a series of 13 patches. If I split the series after the 3rd patch, it works. Also, if I use https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/965.diff, it also works. I'm not subscribed to the list, so please CC me. Cheers, Eneas
