1 | if you specify a patch to `epatch` which does not exist based on the name |
2 | alone, epatch will now search for it in EPATCH_SOURCE. this makes it useful |
3 | to apply a set of patches which have a specific order but cannot use the |
4 | existing lexicographical search. |
5 | |
6 | quick example is a debian patchset that does not have names to imply sorting. |
7 | instead, all the patches are ordered according to a file. so now you can do: |
8 | EPATCH_SOURCE=$WORKDIR/debian/patches epatch $(<series) |
9 | -mike |
