Hi! |
11 |
|
12 |
If you have to change many files it's best to make two copies of the |
13 |
source and name them like: |
14 |
|
15 |
directory.orig |
16 |
directory |
17 |
|
18 |
make your changes in directory and then put yourself in the directory |
19 |
containing both directories and typ |
20 |
|
21 |
diff -u directory.orig directory > my_file.patch |
22 |
|
