[U-Boot] u-boot sparc for leon3-altera-ep2s60-sdr working
Hi guys, I'd like to add the configuration for leon3-altera-ep2s60-sdr board. What could be the best working way to have an automatic patch generator?
Thanks

Make one, I guess. :)
Seriously, though: what do you mean by "automatic patch generator"?
If you mean "I've done modifications to the official U-boot source code and now I need to create a diff patch between my curent source tree and the official U-boot source tree", then that's what git is for.
If you mean something else, please explain.
Thanks

Exactly this. I started to study git, so I'm doing some tests.
Thanks Cheers

git format-patch is your friend :)
I would recommend stg (stacked git) - It will allow you to mess around with (and mess up) patches without polluting your git tree
It is really just a wrapper around git commands, but for me, it makes like a lot easier
Thanks Cheers

Where could I find stg? and its documentation?
Thanks

I tried stg a few times, but I guess it's a matter of taste. I never found anything there that I could not do as well (or even ina more "natural" way) using plain git - especially "git rebase -i", occasionally augmented with "git add -i".
The nice thing is that there are many compatible tools and everybody can try them out and find the ones that suit his mode of operation best.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
