[U-Boot-Users] Newbie question: How do apply the patch from an attachment to my uboot tree

[Shlomo_Kut at mksinst.com]

Hi,

I am really interested in looking at the patch to Brad Kemp's CFI conformant flash driver. 

Is it already in the cvs database?

How do get from the stream of characters at the of the message to a 
patched version of u-boot?

regards

Yes, you have to checkout the HEAD.

Hmm, I think you talk about your subject question here, right ? Now, to patch 
your own U-Boot tree do:

1.) Save even this email attachment includes the patch you want
    (say to file: u-boot-feature.patch).
2.) Go into your U-Boot tree and call the "patch" command line tool:

    > cd u-boot
    > patch -p1 < replace_this_with_your_path_to/u-boot-feature.patch
