Re: please test the new Patcher

drv> Dear friends, drv> here's a new version of Patcher that I'd like you to test. If drv> everything goes well, I'll commit it in a few days. drv> This version mostly has the following new features: drv> - support for different ChangeLog layouts in the drv> message. ChangeLogs can now appear as part of the patch drv> (same diff command as for the other files), diff'ed with drv> another command (for instance `diff -U 0'), or as pure text drv> like before. Hi Didier, this version has worked well for me for a number of patches now. I am using '(patcher-default-change-logs-appearance "cvs -q diff -U 0 %f") now. drv> - support for subject prefix customization. You can now drv> customize the subject prefix (currently "[PATCH]") and also drv> provide an alternate "committed" version. This will mostly drv> interest the other reviewers, I think, as using the hideous drv> [PATCH APPROVE] and [PATCH APPROVE COMMIT] tags is now drv> automatic. I have not played with these yet. Two issues remain, but those have been present forever: '(patcher-keep-source-files nil) does not kill buffers after sending the patch. ChangeLog additions are sometimes inserted multiple times. I'll investigate those one day. It would be good to get this patcher version into a package soon, since it's definitely an improvement. Best regards, Adrian drv> Please customize the options drv> `patcher-default-change-logs-appearance', drv> `patcher-default-subject-prefix', drv> `patcher-default-subject-committed-prefix', and their drv> respective project options. drv> -- drv> Didier, going back to lethargy again ... -- Adrian Aichner mailto:adrian＠xemacs.org http://www.xemacs.org/
