--------------00AD3FA94B89E667C818461C Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi, I've written a new report for gnucash and would like to submit it. The report displays tax related information, income, deductible expenses, etc. I have several questions concerning cvs. I've never used cvs before and the information in the README is not completely clear to me. I downloaded the gnucash-1.4.4 tar ball as the base and made my modifications relative to it. The README says I must do a cvs update before running the make-gnucash-patch script. It is not clear to me, which version(s) of gnucash is(are) acceptable to submit a patch to. Questions: 1. Is the latest unstable stable version the only acceptable version to submit a patch to? 2. Is the latest stable version acceptable? 3. Are other versions acceptable? 4. What exactly are the -r revision tags for older versions? I did a test run of make-gnucash-patch to see if it produced what I expected. It missed two .gif files that are part of the help documentation for my new report. Apparently, the patch program ignores binary files. Question: 1. What is the procedure for submitting files that are ignored by make-gnucash-patch? -- Gilligan | __o .oooO /| _ \<,_ ( ) /p|\ (_)/ (_) \ ( Oooo. / | \ ------------ \_) ( ) ======== ) / ======== gilligan@mpinet.net (_/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ uschold@cs.ucf.edu --------------00AD3FA94B89E667C818461C Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> Hi,I've written a new report for gnucash and would like to submit it.
