Subject: when is "git diff" output suitable for patch?
Date: Thu, 13 Jul 2006 17:21:27 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060713212127.GA30770@fieldses.org> (raw)
I assume the -C and -M, -c, and -cc options all result in diff output
that can't be correctly applied by "patch" any more? (Would a patch to
the git-diff-files documentation warning about this be helpful?)
Someone I'm working with is having trouble applying patches that they
created with a simple "git diff". The patches in question have some
"copy from/copy to" headers. Should that every happen with just a plain
"git diff"? Is this a bug in their version of git? (They're on 1.2.4).
