   To Brett: "I've had problems with your method of patches before Jerome - can 
you use "svn diff" instead of taking copies of the files and using diff? We 
need to know what the source revision was."
   
   The reason I don't use svn diff directly is I often have several patches 
waiting on the same project. For example I submitted that one in a serie of 3 
patches. I cannot then use svn diff to create my patch. I would have to create 
each patch independently of the other and 1- it is often not possible, 2- that 
means I would have to update my patch when a precedent one is checked in. So 
svn diff is not an option in some cases given the way I work (in batch).
   
   So I use 'quilt' to handle the patches. It is supposed to work. I've used it 
successfully on all the other projects I am working on. But I sometimes make a 
mistake, and that render the patch not usable. I will improve my discipline and 
make sure that I better test apply my patch stack before submission. Maybe 
should I only submit them as a group (that's what is done in other projects)?
   
   Sorry if that caused you some issues but I think that this is still the 
correct way to go for me.
