Steven Rowe commented on SOLR-2452:
-----------------------------------

bq. What's the right thing to do here in terms of a patch against the old file 
structure? Is it reasonable to check out fresh code, hack the patch file to 
reflect the new paths and apply it to the new structure or must I re-edit the 
source?

I'm working on a script to automatically hack patch files against the old file 
structure.  When it's ready, I'll attach it to this issue.

bq. And is SVN merge smart enough to deal when merging from trunk to 3x when 3x 
hasn't been changed, or is it better to just wait on it all until the back-port 
is done?

AFAIK, SVN merge is not smart enough.  I should be able to finish the backport 
in a day or two, though, so waiting shouldn't be too bad.

You don't need to wait for these things, and for small patches it may be 
feasible to manually manage the patch hacking and the 3.x merging.  But for 
larger patches, the effort should be much smaller when the patch hacking script 
is available and the 3.x backport is finished.

> Its slow, cumbersome, and messy, and makes it hard for us to improve things.
