How to sync patches?

<< < (3/3)

Llorean:
'make clean' just cleans up the build directory. It doesn't compile a build using clean sources.

svn revert -r * in your source directory (the same place you run svn update from) will revert any and all changes, after which a normal make will be 'clean' as it were.

--- Quote ---You are correct, except for the reverse-apply.

You apply the patch and see if there are any rejects.

If so,  then ignore the patch file (it has done it's job) and modify the relevant source files that the patch made changes to.

Once it compiles cleanly, then do the diff to a (differently-named) .patch file in order to re-submit to Flyspray.

It's a bit confusing, but you'll get there in the end.

If all else fails, you can always do the revert -R command to remove all local edits and get back to a clean copy.

Thanks.  This is exactly what I was looking for.
