Hmmm, perhaps I jumped the gun. I just looked over the field collapse patch for SOLR-236 and each file listed in the patch has its own revision #.
E.g. from field-collapse-5.patch: --- src/java/org/apache/solr/core/SolrConfig.java (revision 824364) --- src/solrj/org/apache/solr/client/solrj/response/QueryResponse.java (revision 816372) --- src/solrj/org/apache/solr/client/solrj/SolrQuery.java (revision 823653) --- src/java/org/apache/solr/search/SolrIndexSearcher.java (revision 794328) --- src/java/org/apache/solr/search/DocSetHitCollector.java (revision 794328) Unless there is a better way, it seems like I would need to do "svn up --revision ..." for each of the files to be patched and then apply the patch? This seems error prone and tedious. Am I missing something simpler here? Michael michael8 wrote: > > Perfect.
