Subject: [PATCH] builtin-apply: Show a more descriptive error on failure when opening a patch
Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2008 15:56:31 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1208112991-21598-1-git-send-email-albertito@gmail.com> (raw)
When a patch can't be opened (it doesn't exist, there are permission
problems, etc.) we get the usage text, which is not a proper indication of
failure.
This patch fixes that by simply doing a perror() instead.
