Hi,
How can we...
1. use the Ant task |patch| in Linux for patching files with DOS linefeeds?
2. apply the option |--binary| with the Ant task |patch|?
See the details below or at Stack Overflow
<https://stackoverflow.com/q/63703418/2158271>.
Kind regards,
Harri

source file with DOS linefeeds
Command line |patch| fails
DOS linefeeds in the patch file are converted into Unix linefeeds and
patching fails:
|[0] mypc<u0>:~/src/test/ant_patch_crlf>patch -i test.patch (Stripping
trailing CRs from patch; use --binary to disable.) patching file
test.txt Hunk #1 FAILED at 1 (different line endings). 1 out of 1 hunk
FAILED -- saving rejects to file test.txt.rej|
Command line |patch --binary| works fine
As suggested above
|use --binary to disable|
adding the option |--binary| helps:
|[0] mypc<u0>:~/src/test/ant_patch_crlf>patch --binary -i test.patch
patching file test.txt|
Ant task |patch| fails
Ant task |patch| fails with the same error than command line without the
option |--binary|:
