alright thanks, the reason i thought you needed internet/cvs was because of the way that the winehq patch-making page was worded...it says to use cvs diff (instead of regular diff). I thoguht that there may be a difference in the 2, so I didnt want to make the diffs with diff when they required cvs diff. But now that I know, i will submit in diff format...
Maybe the winehq site maintainer (alexandre?) could make that a little more clear (for us patch-contributing newbies/relative newbies) --- Tony Lambregts <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Speeddymon wrote: > > >as I have said a couple times, i dont have any way > to > >make the proper diff's due to the fact that I have > no > >internet at home, thanks again for making them for > me, > >I will be submitting the 2 diff's tomorrow (can't > do > >it here due to the fact that this computer is at > >compusa and has downloading disabled) > > > >Would there be anyone willing to make diff's for me > >when I have a patch to post? if so, could you > please > >email me directly so I know who to talk to? > > > >Thanks in advance > > > Well I would be glad to make diffs for you but it > really is not required > that you have CVS or the Internet to make propper > diffs. > > diff -u wineinstall.old wineinstall > > wineinstall.dif > > Where wineinstall.old is the original file (that you > saved somewhere or > got from the tarball) and wineinstall is the file > with your changes. > "man diff" will give you more information but thats > about all that you > need to know. > > You can edit the wineinstall.dif to get rid of the > .old extention but > I'm not sure its required.
