Re: [opensuse-packaging] Quilt refresh options

It works because quilt relies on getopt to parse the options, and getopt is happy with abbreviated long options as long as they are unambiguous. That being said, refresh accepts both --sort and --strip-trailing-whitespace so --s is definitely ambiguous. Looks like a bug in getopt. Anyway, you never know which options will be added to quilt in the future, plus spelling out the options makes it easier for the reader to understand what he/she is doing. So I have updated the wiki to mention explicit quilt options. Jean Le dimanche 30 septembre 2012 à 15:50 +0300, openSUSE user a écrit :

Hi, Togan.

...

quilt ref --s --d -p1

--d == --diffstat --s == --sort

Best regards.

Hi,

According to Packaging Patch Guidelines at http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_Patches_guidelines use of quilt is exampled as follows

quilt ref --s --d -p1

However neither the man page nor the quilt refresh -h provides the options --s and --d

It would be nice to know what they are suppose to mean

Thanks
