Please include any relevant bug numbers. Diffs should be created with
the "-u" option, for instance
</p>
- <pre><big>cvs diff -u Main.java
>> patchfile.txt</big></pre>
- <pre><big>diff -u Main.java.orig
Main.java >> patchfile.txt</big></pre>

+Note: You should give your patch files meaningful names. For instance if you
+fix a concurrency bug in the foo component do not call your patch file
+"patchfile.txt" but instead call it "foo-concurrency.txt". This makes it easier
+for developers who need to apply a number of different patches.
