Hi Vipin, I'm not so smart in diff / patch and git tools usage. Could be so kind to write to me how to build a patch for just one file I have modified in driver/mtd directory of u-boot?
Thanks in advange and sorry for my request, but I read on the net and nothing appeared to be usfull.
No problems. It takes a little time to get used to git but then you start liking it. Anyway
you can create a patch for each commit. You can see a summary of commits via "git log"
Basically you need to run git format-patch -n <reference> reference is a branch name or tag or a direct reference to commit from which you want to create patches
eg git format-patch -n origin/master would create numbered patches for commits after the commit pointed to by origin/master
Also, run "gitk --all -1000" to get an understanding of what exactly is happening in the background when you commit a change
Hope this helps a little
Vipin
Thanks and sorry again

Hi all, for sending a patch do I need to have on my PC two u-bbot tree, one original obtaned by git command, and another to make the modifications?
Or can I produce the patches using the original tree resident on git server?
Ciao Fabio,
You can use git format patch command to produce numbered patches You can google it to know more
