Hi.
Thanks for the reply.
I get GNU patch from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/patch.htm
and run "svn patch --patch-cmd=patch.exe out.txt".
But I get the following error.
patching file build.conf
patching file www/hacking.html
Assertion failed: hunk, file ../patch-2.5.9-src/patch.c, line 354
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
svn: 'patch.exe' returned error exitcode 3
I open the patch file with a text editor and find that the file has
CRs and CR-LFs.
Then I convert the line endings to CR-LF and re-try 'svn patch'. I can
successfully
apply the patch.
It seems GNU patch can't handle mixed line endings and 'svn diff --svnpatch'
produces a mixed-line-ending result on Windows.
Regards.
Masaru.
