Hi all, for the last two days I have problem with "makepatch". Everytime I want to create a patch, the result is patch file, which subtracts _all_ lines from _all_ source files. I tested it with some other packages not maintained by me and the result was the same.
As an example, here is a part of the contents of the generated patch file: ----- diff --speed-large-files --minimal -Nru pnp-0.4.13.orig/AUTHORS pnp-0.4.13/AUTHORS --- pnp-0.4.13.orig/AUTHORS 2009-02-19 18:29:18.000000000 +0100 +++ pnp-0.4.13/AUTHORS 1970-01-01 01:00:00.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,3 +0,0 @@ -Authors: -J<C3><B6>rg Linge [email protected] -Hendrik B<C3><A4>cker [email protected] diff --speed-large-files --minimal -Nru pnp-0.4.13.orig/BUGS pnp-0.4.13/BUGS --- pnp-0.4.13.orig/BUGS 2009-02-19 18:29:18.000000000 +0100 +++ pnp-0.4.13/BUGS 1970-01-01 01:00:00.000000000 +0100 @@ -1 +0,0 @@ -A lots of it... diff --speed-large-files --minimal -Nru pnp-0.4.13.orig/COPYING pnp-0.4.13/COPYING --- pnp-0.4.13.orig/COPYING 2009-02-19 18:29:18.000000000 +0100 +++ pnp-0.4.13/COPYING 1970-01-01 01:00:00.000000000 +0100 @@ -1,340 +0,0 @@ - GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE - Version 2, June 1991 - - Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. - 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA - Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies - of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. - - Preamble - - The licenses for most software are designed to take away your ... and so on. ----- Also I am wondering, why the time stamp is at "1970-01-01 01:00:00.000000000 +0100". My workflow is like this: - gmake extract - change some files - gmake makepatch I already created patches successfully, so I'm really surprised about this. Can anyone reproduce this behaviour? Or does anyone has a hint for me, what I do wrong?
