It has no problem with udiffs without timestamps. When you use -T or -Z, it prints to stdout that it cannot set the time, but still exit(0). So in that case, do I understand you correctly that dpatch-edit-patch should remove timestamps _always_? Or do you still think an option (00options, ~/.dpatch.conf, command line) is useful? Peter
