It happened earlier too, that you change the file modes. Please make sure that future patches do not touch the file modes of existing files and new files are added with the correct file mode.
Hmmm...I wonder why this is happening. It must have something to do with using ubuntu inside windows (and editing files in windows over samba). Nonetheless, I am having problems learning how to use git effectively. I am using some guide on kernel.com, but I wish I had some more detailed directions that were also less cryptic.
when I type: git format-patch origin, can I edit the text in pico instead of vi?
Stefan, one day you will stop getting all of these patch formating mistakes from me.
If you (or any other) have no objection against my suggestions
mentioned above, I'll change the code accordingly.
No objection. That works fine too.
