Manually editing the file in emacs, then running "git format-patch", followed by importing the patch file into alpine and sending it off surely didn't feel "automated" ;-) The only reason I even included the change of the return value cast was that it was the variable I was focusing on with regards to fixing the leak, so it felt "sufficiently related" to include in the same patch. I certainly was not on a mission to clean up the file in general - just fixing the leak was all that was really on the agenda. I don't *mind* fixing up other issues in the file - sure, I can do that, but that's an entirely different set of patches then... -- Jesper Juhl <jj@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://www.chaosbits.net/ Don't top-post http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/T/top-post.html Plain text mails only, please. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
