Applying GIT patch

Hello,

I have uploaded a couple patches (tarballs containing multiple commits) to bugzilla. What is the correct method to apply these patches so that others can see my work?

Thank you, Eric

Hi,

To apply patches created with git-format-patch, use git-am, like this:

git am 0001-single-file.patch

or for multi-file commits:

tar -zxvf lots-of-commits.tar.gz git am lots-of-commits/*

where lots-of-commits contains the files

0001-foo.patch 0002-bar.patch
0003-foo-bar.patch

Often, you might want to create a new branch before you apply them

git checkout -b lots-of-commits origin/master

HTH, Martin
