Hi Folks,
I had a hard time applying Rainers patches for the German DUG (Thanks for
your work Rainer!)
The problem I ran into is that TortoiseMerge does not save/create the file
when I do not apply the patch exactly from the patchfiles root.
If you take the current example, Parent dir containing the patchfile is
"doc"
- ---SNIP---
Index: source/de/tsvn_dug/dug_revgraph.xml
===================================================================
- --- source/de/tsvn_dug/dug_revgraph.xml (revision 0)
+++ source/de/tsvn_dug/dug_revgraph.xml (revision 0)
- ---SNIP---
I selected "apply patch" inside "doc/source/de" and loaded the patchfile
"doc/tsvn_revgraph.diff". If I doubleclick the patch inside TortoiseSVN, the
new file is created in the right hand window. Alas, there's no way to save
it. The save button is enabled, but there's no warning, nothing.
Only if I select "apply patch" inside "doc", where the patches root lies, it
is possible to save the applied patch. This is a real "I'm stuck"
experience, since it is not obvious, that the user made a mistake.
I think this only happens, if the target does not yet exist. When the target
exists, TortoiseSVN scans up the tree for the proper patch root.
Cheers
