I would even prefer .patch to be default, but I guess a > config parameter would help me there. >=20 Thirded, although I'd rather have it .gpatch, as it's a full commit wit= h=20 message and all. It isn't necessarily usable with the 'patch' program=20 without manual massage first. I can live with .txt though. Not many other files I keep around have=20 names quite like=20 0001-loadbalance_module-support-config-fanout-in-static-mesh.txt, so=20 it's not as if I frequently confuse them. --=20 Andreas Ericsson andreas.ericsson@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231
