You just didn't use the actual command I told you on IRC ;-) <doener> git format-patch --relative=click/ click/master click That already had the path limiting "click" in it, I really meant "click" there, not "myclick" ;-) I guess the confusion was caused by how format-patch takes the range it's supposed to work on. If you only give it a single committish, that is interpreted as "since". So the above is equal to git format-patch --relative=click/ click/master..HEAD click Björn -- 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
