SubjectRe: [PATCH 1 of 23] IB/ipath - More changes to support InfiniPath on PowerPC 970 systems
From
Date
How did you generate these patches?  When I try to apply them with
git, I get errors like

error: drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile Fri Aug 25 11:19:44 2006 -0700: No such file or directory

because the line

diff --git a/drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile b/drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile

makes git think it's a git diff, but git doesn't put dates on the
filename lines. In other words, instead of

--- a/drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile Fri Aug 25 11:19:44 2006 -0700
+++ b/drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile Fri Aug 25 11:19:44 2006 -0700

the patch should just have

--- a/drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile
+++ b/drivers/infiniband/hw/ipath/Makefile

before the Makefile chunks.

I fixed this up by deleting the "diff --git" lines, but I'm curious
how you created this in the first place.
