https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192530 Bug ID: 192530 Summary: patch(1) reject format no longer fixed in context format but missing reject-format option Product: Base System Version: 10.0-STABLE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: Needs Triage Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: melvyn@magemana.nl patch no longer creates reject files in the context format, contrary to what the manual page specifies. It's behavior is similar to Ubuntu's (http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man1/patch.1.html), but it's missing the option to select the reject format (through --reject-format or other ways). Personally I prefer the old behavior, since context diffs are much easier to read and to spot why the rejection occurred, but at least I'd like the option to select it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
