Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2008 00:28:49 -0000 Hi list. I have a question about patches. Earlier today someone sent me a load of patches for rockbox. He very thoughtfully provided me with both one big file of all his patches, and the patch files individually. I applied the big file of patches, and it applied fine I got no errors. However when i tried to build a new build of rb it wouldn't build because of one error in the code of one of the patches something to do with one of the functions not being used i'm not completely sure. However I am very reluctant to not apply his patches just because of one error. But He is quite busy so i'm not sure when he will get around to fixing it and i really don't want to anoy him by seeming to complain, so i'd like to find a work around that will work as a temporary solution. The problem is there are so many patches, over 30 in all. I don't really want to have to sit there applying each patch one by one, doing a test build to see if that one caused the problem and then applying the next one as that would take hours. I was thinking of applying them in batches of 5 or something til i get the same build error and then work out from there which is the patch with the error and then just not apply that one. However I was wondering could someone please tell me is there a command i can use to apply multiple patch files in one go as I haven't been able to find out. Of course if someone has a better idea of what i could do to sort this i'd like to here it. Thanks very much for your help. Alex.
