Redmine patches

Added by Ian S. almost 16 years ago

Hello, I'm new to Redmine. I looked around extensively for this, but couldn't find anything on it. And maybe it's a stupid question, but I to know how to install a patch that I've downloaded. I'm sure it's simple, but I'm just not sure what to do. Is this even a Redmine issue, or is it a Rails issue...?

Anyway, here's my info (although seemingly irrelevant). Thanks for any help you can provide.

The simplest is to go to the root directory of your redmine install, and type : "patch -p0 < the_patch.patch"

Many development project work like this ; you can make patches with "diff file1 file2", or "svn diff" if your project is versionned with subversion (there are equivalents in git etc), and you can patch your installation with "patch" command. It's not specific to Redmine, not even to Rails.
