How does one make a patch for a while, that has blanks in the path:
--- foo bar/meow~ Fri Mar 11 09:00:49 2005
+++ foo bar/meow Fri Jun 10 12:17:22 2005
- a = 0;
+ a = 1;
With the above example, patch searches only for `foo', then gives up and asks
for help. I tried quoting the entire file name and escaping the blanks with
backslashes -- neither method works... Any ideas? Thanks!
There was a discussion and maybe even a fix proposed for this issue on one of
the GNU lists, probably <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>? Anyway, I don't think the
current release version of patch will handle paths containing spaces...
