Kay,

Is the description that you might be thinking of.

Yes! thanks. Well the reason I asked the question re "diff" is that "svn diff" seems to produce output that is kind of different from a regular "diff" as near as I can tell.

See for example...

http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.5/svn.tour.cycle.html#svn.tour.cycle.resolve.diff

and, I wondering which was preferable...a normal "diff" or "svn diff".

The Apache page you just sent indicates the "svn diff" but ????

Great!

BTW - I have a TODO on
http://incubator.apache.org/openofficeorg/website-local.html for how
to create a patch.

OK, I have a question about this -- how to create a patch. Is it really
just as simple as running a "diff" on the original vs the new? I used
the diff process within eclipse when I submitted my "patch", and, even
though I *thought* I had tracked down this information on the Apache
site at one point, I couldn't find it again.
