Hi Eric,
Thanks for the detailed instructions. I'll follow this path next time.
All the best,
Tom

Hi Tom,
Yes, the commit is important, this method actually shares all of your
commit, including the author information and the commit message.
I do this outside of magit, I tend to go to the magit buffer to make
sure everything looks ok, then do M-! and type in the command line
manually. I'm not sure what the magit way of doing this would be, but
the "D" method you described doesn't generate the same type of output
file as does git format-patch.
Thanks -- Eric

Hi Eric,
Will do. The earlier patch was made with magit. I used the d
command, Diff working tree, then saved the output to the file I sent.
If I understand correctly, the missing step was the commit. I should
be able to follow a commit with the D command in magit, starting at
HEAD~1 and ending with HEAD. Then save the resulting buffer to
foo.patch, right?
Or, is it better to do this outside magit so the results don't pass
through an emacs buffer on their way to disk?
All the best,
Tom

Applied, Thanks -- Eric
p.s. would you mind submitting git formatted patches for these
sort of
updates in the future? It greatly simplifies the process of
applying the patch. The process for creating a git formatted
patch
is as follows...
1. commit your changes to your local copy of the org-mode
repository
2. run the following command to wrap up the latest commit on your
local copy of the repository into a file which can be attached
to email messages
git format-patch -o ~/Desktop/ HEAD~1
after the command finished you will notice a new file on your
Desktop with a name like 0001-commit-message-stuff.patch
Thanks Again -- Eric

Aloha all,
The attached patch documents the behavior of the :cache header
argument.
All the best,
Tom
