Well, it initially happened like this, because I wanted to merge back multiple changes back to releng/8 with re@'s approval. re@ required diff files to include commit messages and proper mergeinfo. Because I can't think of a way to prepare a larger set of patches that include proper mergeinfo without constantly reverting back and forth or keeping track of multiple 1.2 GB checkouts, I eventually just decided to create a bigger patch, so it was more an exception than a routine. Reverting patches shouldn't be a problem, because I could always just svn merge -c -123456 to revert individual commits. --=20 Ed Schouten WWW: http://80386.nl/ --HlXFiQcSFG/a+HqU Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkrtrKcACgkQ52SDGA2eCwVSaQCfdWZyR9hTrFO+cvI1pTd6q0Bu fbkAoIE8nt3tLb1DZE57KXPkbhp8vBHp =bUCl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --HlXFiQcSFG/a+HqU--
