I have never used quilt, so how do I set it up correctly? I am using
Fedora 9 and have copied all patches from ext4-patch-queue into
2.6.26-rc5/patches. Then I always issue the following command in
2.6.26-rc5 directory:

quilt push

That works until it comes to patch patches/ext4_ialloc-flexbg.patch when
it gets lots of rejects. So how do I set this up correctly?
