Hi,
I happily used Darcs to track my patches to a software from the Internet. The original author is not using Darcs. Now it's time for feedback.
My idea was that darcs can produce output that looks like annotated context
or unified diffs which the original author would apply using patch.
darcs changes -v
gives output close to that, but not good enough for the author to
easily apply to his source tree.
I wanted to
o use Darcs so I have a fine-grained log of my changes -- works great
o tag the original imported software version -- done
o be able to send these fine grained patches to the author
I wouldn't like to send just one big diff file which
darcs diff -u --from-tag foo-1.2.3
generates.
I.e. ideally, I'm looking for something like
( for each recorded patch since author's tagged version
do: produce unified diff including patch comment as header )
> mypatches.diff
How can I achieve that?
Thanks for your help,
Jörg Höhle.
