Quick tip for Patches

I figured I should share this tip I learned today. Since a lot of my readers tend to come from the Awn forum, a lot of you probably use Awn, and maybe have tried some of the patches for Awn. Well because if using Awn I learned how to apply patches, but today I had to do something different, I needed to remove a patch, without starting from scratch.

So I asked around on the Awn forum and user, nablaa came to the rescue, by sharing this with me.


patch -p0 -R < name.patch


Just cd into the directory the patch is in then use that command and change name to the patches name, and just that patch will be removed. Then re-configure /compile and you will be all good. Thanks again to, nablaa for helpign me with this!
