I tried to apply your patch, but I got the following:
sorensen2:lilypond-working Carl$ git am
0001-Docs-Shorten-line-lengths-for-a-snippet.patch
error: cannot read mbox 0001-Docs-Shorten-line-lengths-for-a-snippet.patch
error: cannot split patches from
0001-Docs-Shorten-line-lengths-for-a-snippet.patch
Then I checked out the file
0001-Docs-Shorten-line-lengths-for-a-snippet.patch
It was zero length.
Then I tried saving your email
[PATCH] Docs: Shorten line lengths for a snippet
to a file test.patch. When I did that, it had MacOS line endings (I'm using
Entourage on the Mac for my email client)
So I copied the text, and cat it to a file.
cat > test2.patch
Now I have unix line endings, so I tried to apply.
Carl$ git am test2.patch
Patch does not have a valid e-mail address.
However the files are modified, so I can commit them and push, but then it
will be my commit, not Patrick's.
So what am I doing wrong, or how should I do it different?
Thanks,
Carl
