patches 1.7.7 to prevent absolute paths in svn status with externals
Patch still required and applies cleanly to 1.7.9, any chance of a -r1? If the output is very important to you, I would suggest epatch_user, it is documented here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-amd64.xml?part=3&chap=6 As a general rule of thumb we try to follow what upstream does unless there is an issue. While I personally agree with your preference, I think it is better to simply track upstream and not diverge. OK I've already long had the patch in a local overlay, just thought it might help others. I understand that it would get to be a management nightmare if you had to maintain anything but the absolutely necessary patches. |
