That's fine, but when you apply the patch, you need to keep the file mode. So be careful as to how you apply it. I just got told that there's a patch in Andrew's tree that fixes this (it doesn't rely on the mode of the file.) Hopefully it gets into Linus's tree soon and then I can queue it up into the stable tree to help people who don't only use git. thanks, greg k-h
