As I also need to work with patch renames, I wrote two scripts to help dealing with them: http://git.linuxtv.org/media_build.git/blob/HEAD:/devel_scripts/gen_rename_patch.pl This is a generic script that gets all file renames that happened between two given versions of the Kernel and generate a renaming script. Its usage is: git diff 2ea4b44..b3f5260 -M | ./gen_rename_patch.pl It outputs a rename shell script, called "rename_patch.sh". In the specific case of the large amounts of rename we did at drivers/media, they're all handled by this script (generated by the above tool): http://git.linuxtv.org/media_build.git/blob/HEAD:/devel_scripts/rename_patch.sh I suspect you may find it useful for you ;) Regards, Mauro _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
