I suggest we change the process for submitting patches to the following: - have a directory writable by everyone such as IMP/patch - to submit a patch, foo, check in trunk/patch/foo.patch and truck/ patch/foo.readme with the patch and a description, respectively - send a short email to imp-dev - when Ben commits the patch, he removes the files from SVN
The advantage of this system is: - it is easy to see keep track of what patches have been submitted but not committed. - it is easy to update patches that have been submitted but not yet committed - it is easy to apply patches that have not yet been committed to your copy of IMP, so is is less problematic when patches don't get committed for a long time. - no more having to get files to your email - all the submitted patches are listed in one place for ben to see - the submitted doesn't have to manually clean how his records of the patch when Ben submits it.
Anyone have improvements? I'll try out such a system with my next patch.
