Summary: How to submit gimp/gegl bugzilla with GIT patch
Hello,
Now that I have completed the steps, I'll post the GIT patch
submission procedure for others.
Checkout GEGL and/or GIMP
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gegl destination-folder-name
or
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gimp destination-folder-name
Complete installation
Create local branch
git checkout -b branch-name origin/master
Do changes while on this branch, commit often (this will NOT affect
other people's repository)
git commit -a -m "Message"
When finished (and committed code one final time) do
git pull --rebase
Fix merge errors, re-execute your test code, commit again if necessary
Create the patch (which will output outlines of your commits)
git format-patch origin/master..branch-name -o output-folder
Tarball output-folder
Go to bugzilla.gnome.org (register if you have not yet) and click New Bug
follow steps, make sure you select GEGL or GIMP (whichever applies)
in attachments section, upload the tarball of your output-folder
attach other relevant files (XML test files, execution times etc.)
Eric
