How to apply patch to sourcode? (Linux) 5 years 10 months ago #6641

Hi, I've been compiling OpenTTD from the sources with each OpenTTD version for few years now and each time I used:
patch -p0 -i Diff.file

but now it doesn't seem to work any more.

It gives the following output:
au@howth:~/tmp/openttd-1.8.0$ patch -p0 -i BTPro_Client_1.8.0_B_180002_git.diff 
can't find file to patch at input line 5
Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?
The text leading up to this was:
--------------------------
|diff --git a/projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj b/projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj
|index 4417308..84f8f59 100644
|--- a/projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj
|+++ b/projects/generate_vs100.vcxproj
--------------------------
File to patch: 

There have been obviously some changes with OpenTTD development being moved to Git. But so far I didn't find out how to apply BTPro Client patch. Any idea? I also tried "git apply" but it gives the following:
au@howth:~/tmp/openttd-1.8.0$ git apply BTPro_Client_1.8.0_B_180002_git.diff
BTPro_Client_1.8.0_B_180002_git.diff:583: trailing whitespace.

How to apply patch to sourcode? (Linux) 5 years 10 months ago #6642

I figured it out, the command is:
git apply --stat BTPro_Client_1.8.0_B_180002_git.diff

glad you figured it out. I was to suggest patch -p1 < file.diff but never tested it ^^

Enjoy the games :)

That doesn't actually apply the patch for me. It in fact changes no files for me.

Instead I do this:
patch -p1 < BTPro_Client_1.8.0_B_180002_git.diff || true

The "|| true" is because one file fails to apply, however that is a VS file and we don't need VS on linux so it doesn't matter.
