5.5 Submitting patches

When you prepare a patch use `diff -upr djgpp.old djgpp.new' or `diff -cpr djgpp.old djgpp.new'. The directory names `djgpp.old' and `djgpp.new' are just examples, but you should preferably use a descriptive name. If you have added any new files the option `-N' comes in handy.

Similarly if you use cvs diff use `cvs -z3 diff -up djgpp' or `cvs -z3 diff -cp djgpp'. To get cvs diff to notice any new files you must make cvs aware of them with the cvs add command.
