Hi,

I want to rebuild vim patch by patch starting with the source of the vim version, which was that one which receives patch 7.3.001.

But applying patch 7.3.001 to it (trying: patch -p0 < 7.3.001, patch
-i -p0 < 7.3.001, patch -i -p 7.3.001, patch -i -p0 7.3.001) failed.

It's unclear what exactly you're trying to do here, so just to clear up
a possible misinterpretation:

The patches are against the source code, not against binaries.

 Yes, I know: patching is patching against source instead of
 binaries...

(Figured.  Just had to check.)


 I simply only wants the source of 7.3.001 or (better) the version of
 vim to which I can apply patch 7.3.001.

 After aap has fetched the source, it recompiles vim, which is not
 wanted at this point.

 I only want to create source versions, no recompilations.
 Binaries are the very last step, the one I will do with version
 7.3.438 (the recent one as far as I can remember).

(I think you mean 138 not 438.)

What are you trying to accomplish?

If you really just want to compile a clean version of 7.3.{latest}, what's wrong with just checking out the Mercurial repository? Why are you going through the work of creating clean 7.3.{1 through 137} if you're not going to use them? The following:

$ hg clone {path-to-repo} vim
$ cd vim
$ ./configure [options] && make (&& make install)

would get you a compiled version of Vim 7.3.{latest}.
