Hi Tay Ray, Thanks for the reply. the problem is now resolved. The problem was that the patches created were in Unix format (only CR) while when I uploaded the patches through FTP site, they were converted to Windows format (CRLF) which was preventing from the patches from getting applied. I changed the files to unix format again and the problem got resolved. -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/How-to-apply-patches-tp5747036p5748001.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
