Abstract

Hints:

  • explain how to create a patch file
  • explain how to reasonably choose a filename for it
  • explain how to apply a patch file
  • explain what to do if it doesn't apply cleanly:
    • dealing with rejects
    • recreating a patch file that does apply cleanly
  • explain option --dry-run

Deliverable: a screencast in .ogv (Ogg Vorbis Video) format
