The best way is to use mercurial and make a clone of web2py. Make your changes, and the commit them to your local version.
Then you can run hg export tip >> /path/to/a/file.diff That will create your diff file you can send to massimo. Then massimo can import that file and it will assign you as the author of the patch when he uses hg import. -Thadeus On Tue, Feb 2, 2010 at 2:13 PM, Wes James <[email protected]> wrote: > I would like to request that a username be added to the appadmin > login.
