Hi

Applying 0001-logo.patch using patch:
patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input.
Patch failed!  Please fix 0001-logo.patch!


I always use  git format patch to create patches  to use them
as usual in buildroot.
The modified files where image files, so this yields a binary patch.

It looks like patch does not understand the binary format that git 
format patch creates.

Is there any workaround this or do i have to revert to the old diff 
method for making patches
of non text files ?

Regards Johan
