Summary: How to submit gimp/gegl bugzilla with GIT patch

permalink

Hello,

Now that I have completed the steps, I'll post the GIT patch
submission procedure for others.

Checkout GEGL and/or GIMP
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gegl destination-folder-name
or
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gimp destination-folder-name

Complete installation

Create local branch
git checkout -b branch-name origin/master

Do changes while on this branch, commit often (this will NOT affect
other people's repository)
git commit -a -m "Message"

When finished (and committed code one final time) do
git pull --rebase

Fix merge errors, re-execute your test code, commit again if necessary

Create the patch (which will output outlines of your commits)
git format-patch origin/master..branch-name -o output-folder

Tarball output-folder

Go to bugzilla.gnome.org (register if you have not yet) and click New Bug
follow steps, make sure you select GEGL or GIMP (whichever applies)
in attachments section, upload the tarball of your output-folder
attach other relevant files (XML test files, execution times etc.)

Eric

Actually, we prefer that patches are attached directly, not in a
tarball. Of course if there are many patches, a tarball is preferable.
But the common case is that a single patch is attached and it is much
easier if that patch is attached directly to the bug-report.
