correct. > I'm also not sure that there's any nicer solution... One option would be to apply the series atomically (i.e. either apply the whole series or not at all), and consider the patches applied if any reversed patch is detected. On a second reading, no-preparation is exactly to disable applying patches, for some reason I had the impression that it was more general. So that is better than I thought. > What's your use case? Exactly what Jonathan described. I'm generating a quilt series from git. d -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
