Peter, you don't need git actually. We are waiting for this 2-4 weeks to get real Git on Apache Flex. Meanwhile Jose and I are using SVN and copy-paste the modifications in our respective fork in github since the layout folder is the same (actually).
So you only need to : 1) dowload the patch using "curl -O <url-to-the patch>" 2) apply patch using "patch < -p1 <localy-saved-patch" and you are ready to test :) 2012/8/29 Peter Ent <p...@adobe.com>: > Hi, > > I'm new to git and while I've been reading about it, this will be my first > time using it and I'm having trouble understanding what I'm supposed to do > to apply this patch.
