If you are using mqueue, then you can "guard" patches. I have never played with that, however. If you're not using mqueue, then you could use email -r rev1:rev2 to send all changesets from revision rev1 to revision rev2 (both inclusive), which you can also do with mqueu, btw). But please send all patches, so we have a correct sequence to apply. > I don't like spamming the list with duplicate patches, but > this patch doesn't work without the "Change overide bin dir" patch. Don't worry, the round-trips needed to review patches are not regarded as spamming! :-) If we did in fact have, say, 10 or more in a 1-hour time, then it could have been. But we'd have gone private long before that! :-) Regards, Yann E. MORIN. -- .-----------------.--------------------.------------------.--------------------. | Yann E.
