If the +patch fixes an existing bug, add the patch as an attachment +to that bug report. + +Otherwise, enter a new bug report that describes the patch, +and attach the patch to that bug report. + +Bug reports containing patches should include the PATCH keyword +in their keyword fields. If the patch adds to or changes the GLib +programming interface, the API keyword should also be included. + +Patches should be in unified diff form. (The -u option to GNU +diff.) |
