If you are going to patch both ntp-stable and ntp-dev
|
|
please do it this way:
|
|
|
|
> cd ntp-stable
|
|
> (make and test your changes to ntp-stable first)
|
|
> (commit your changes to ntp-stable)
|
|
> cd ../ntp-dev
|
|
> bk pull ../ntp-stable (get your changes from ntp-stable)
|
|
> (resolve any problems and test your changes)
|
|
> (commit your changes to ntp-dev)
|
|
|
|
With the current release of bitkeeper it is *much* easier to move changes
|
|
from ntp-stable to ntp-dev than it is to move changes from ntp-dev to
|
|
ntp-stable.
|
|
|
|
If you make your changes in the above order and then submit them,
|
|
it will be trivial to apply your patches.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, it will be much more difficult to apply your patches.
|
|
|
|
You are pretty much done now if your repos are on pogo.udel.edu.
|
|
|
|
If these patches are for a bugzilla issue, mark the issue as Resolved/READY
|
|
with a comment of "Please pick up the patches in pogo:/wherever"
|
|
|

|

|
|
Please read (and follow) the previous section if you want to submit
|
|
patches for both ntp-stable and ntp-dev.
|
|
|
|
If you cannot easily get your patches to pogo, you may submit patches
|
|
via the 'bk send' command:
|
|
|
|
> cd REPO
|
|
> bk citool (or bk ci ... ; bk commit ... )
|
|
> bk pull # make sure your repo is up-to-date
|
|
> bk send -d -ubk://www.ntp.org/home/bk/REPO - > file-containing-the-patch
|
|
> bk receive -vv -a < file-containing-the-patch
|
|
# Sanity check.
|
|
|
|
# Open a bugzilla item at <http://bugzilla.ntp.org>
|
|
|
|
# After the bug is opened, visit the bug and attach file-containing-the-patch
|
