Thank you very much for your explanations and work on external source
code synchrinization but I still do not understand why we have to
create .diff files manually and commit them to SVN instead of using SVN
to create such diff files automatically if necessary.

And unlike everything what you said before these are reasonable
arguments for me which definitely close farther discussion.
The only one libraries I may want to update is ZLIB (maybe also PCRE
but only if I work on unicode support) and I'm not interested in others
so your preferences are rules here as long as you plan to make such
updates. If I will want to change anything in any of our external/*
code I'll report it to this list and you will take decision if it's
worth to commit.
BTW does current PCRE version contain our local modifications or not?
If it does then we should also have .diff file in external/pcre but if
not then we should remove external/pcre/ChangeLog to not confuse users.

best regards,
Przemek
