Hi, Some of the files in documentation are binary (pdfs/jpg/png etc.) and do not play nicely with patches $ curl -s https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/testing/patch-4.9-rc1.xz | xzcat | grep "Binary files" Binary files a/Documentation/media/media_api_files/typical_media_device.pdf and b/Documentation/media/media_api_files/typical_media_device.pdf differ Binary files a/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/dev-raw-vbi_files/vbi_525.pdf and b/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/dev-raw-vbi_files/vbi_525.pdf differ Binary files a/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/dev-raw-vbi_files/vbi_625.pdf and b/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/dev-raw-vbi_files/vbi_625.pdf differ Binary files a/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/pixfmt-nv12mt_files/nv12mt.gif and /dev/null differ Binary files /dev/null and b/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/pixfmt-nv12mt_files/nv12mt.png differ Binary files a/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/pixfmt-nv12mt_files/nv12mt_example.gif and /dev/null differ Binary files /dev/null and b/Documentation/media/uapi/v4l/pixfmt-nv12mt_files/nv12mt_example.png differ The patch files generated can't be applied with either git or patch when there are changes to these files. Can future documentation exclude checking in binary files or at least come up with a way that patches on kernel.org can still be applied?
