Howto apply a patch/diff file

[amirtaheri]

I only used "make" with no spaces and no luck

I only used "make" with no spaces and no luck

Don't use a path with spaces in it. Btw, "make" should do, instead of "make build"

Macbook:/users/amirtaheri/openttd amirtaheri$ make build

The directory "openttd amirtaheri" contains a space. i was refering to that space (in the path).

[amirtaheri]

That isn't something I can change. The actual folder is just OpenTTD

The structure is /users/amirtaheri/openttd

That amirtaheri$ is part of the Terminal application prompt I think.

Then I've no more idea how to solve your problem.

[amirtaheri]

Any other takers?

I really want to install this Passenger destination patch!

[DaleStan]

That amirtaheri$ is part of the Terminal application prompt I think.

What's the output of pwd?

[amirtaheri]

Just this:

/users/amirtaheri/openttd

[DaleStan]

Then you are correct, and the " amirtaheri" is added by your shell.

Try these two:
"svn st | grep !"
"ls -l /users/amirtaheri/openttd/src/core/alloc_func.cpp src/core/alloc_func.cpp"

[amirtaheri]

I'm getting this:

[planetmaker]

you're obviously missing files (look at all those "not found" lines). Also I've got the impression that you have files which were not successfully patched and require resolving patch conflicts. Follow DaleStan's instructions and we might be able to help further.

[Brianetta]

Try these two:
"svn st | grep !"
<snip>

You need to be wary of unescaped exclamation marks. bash loves to parse them as history events with absolutely the highest precedence, which is annoying.

"svn st | grep \!"

[DaleStan]

Ah. That explains why -!T- (a useful-to-me TTDPatch switch) is so not-worky on bash. I did figure out to escape the bang, but never bothered to figure out why.
Anyway, do what Brianetta said. He is in the habit of knowing what he's talking about, and it can't hurt.

In fact, the entire output of "svn st" could also be helpful. grepping for ! selects only those files that aren't present in your working copy, as opposed to those that are "merely" changed.

Well, let me explain what im having a problem to understand...
It says to enter certain lines of code in terminal, but do i just enter them like that from the user, or do i have to do "cd ~/Desktop/Openttd/...etc"
and then do it?

Do do the following, i put the .diff file in the same folder as the openttd executable file...(im guessing that)
So if i get it correctly, i have to use this:

Code: Select all

patch -p0 -i file.diff

and i get

Code: Select all

patch -p2 -i trafficlights.diff

am i getting it right or is it totally wrong?

I'm trying to install the YAPP patch to the latest OpenTTD stable release. I followed the directions and got as far as the part where you use TortoiseSVN to apply the patch. See image:


But when I do that, I get this blank window... which I don't know what to do with.


So, what do I do now?

Or even better, does anyone have a copy of OpenTTD 0.6.2 with just the YAPP installed, or would be willing to do it for me? If you want I can provide my own webspace for you to upload it to.

EDIT: I also tried it with BuildOpenTTD, but when I tried to select the YAPP patch, it says "unknown patch format"

Get lastest nightly, it has YAPP included.
