-0700 (Sun, 21 Oct 2007) Log MessageAdd a patch to xml2po that,
against all reason, seems to work. Bump the revision number so
everyone gets it.
Shouldn't the patch be renamed "patch-xml2po_xml2po.py"?
http://geeklair.net/new_macports_guide/#development.patches.source
It should be called "patch-xml2po_xml2po.py.diff". The guide should
be updated to recommend this style.
I object to naming patchfiles with the original file's extension. The
file "patch-xml2po_xml2po.py" is *NOT* a Python file! It is a
difference of two Python files. Editors attempting to perform source
code highlighting based on the file extension will do so incorrectly
for files which are in fact diffs. Call the file what it is. Put
".diff" at the end.
The old guide was contradictory, as it recommended one way in one
place and the other way in another place. Let's please standardize on
the format "patch-FOO.diff". According to "find . -name 'patch-
*.diff' | wc -l" we already have hundreds of patchfiles following
this convention.
