You folks have convinced me that the old patchlist was almost the
|
|
right way to go for mutt identifying what patches have been applied.
|
|
|
|
Thus, I've implemented this scheme (and will commit it to the CVS
|
|
in a moment): There's a new file called PATCHES in the source tree,
|
|
which will be empty in the official distribution.
|
|
|
|
This file's format is one patch ID per line. Patch IDs should be
|
|
the same as the file names used for distributing patches. The
|
|
format for these file names should be this:
|
|
|
|
patch-<version>.<initials>.<patch-description>.<patchlevel>
|
|
|
|
That is, Vsevolod's NNTP patch for mutt-1.3.42 could be named like
|
|
this:
|
|
|
|
patch-1.3.42.vvv.nntp.1
|
|
|
|
From PATCHES, patchlist.c will be automatically generated. In
|
|
order to properly construct PATCHES, please include the following
|
|
chunk with your patch, replacing <your-id-here> by your patch ID.

The patch IDs will be displayed when mutt is run with the 'v'
|
|
command line switch.
