If you think, downgrade it to important, but I think, this issue
introduces data loss.

The problem can be easily reproduced: Take a package with dpatch
support. Create a patch:

dpatch -a -0 -01_foo
(e.g. touch test, add some text to test, exit)

then talke a look at the patch and you will find the newly created file.
Now run the same command again:

dpatch -a -0 -01_foo
(e.g. touch test2, add some text to test2, exit)

and now look again into the patch. Your first change has been completely
lost. I guess, the problem is caused by the -a switch, that probably
apples the patch we want to change to the orig source too, so the
difference gets lost, because the patch has been applied to the working
and the reference tree. Maybe you just need to make sure, that only the
patches up to (and excluding) the given patch are applied to the source.

This introduces a second question: Say you have 5 patches: 01..05 and you
run

dpatch-edit-patch -a 03

Shall it apply the patch 01..02 or shall it try to put the patch 03 at
the end and apply all patches 01..02,04..05? Depending on this, I guess,
you have to solve the original problem.

Regards, Daniel
