7.3 Submitting patches

Like bug reports contributed patches are forwarded to the developer mailing list. This is the link for submitting patches: http://sourceforge.net/p/sdcc/patches/.

You need to specify some parameters to the diff command for the patches to be useful. If you modified more than one file a patch created f.e. with ”diff -Naur unmodified_directory modified_directory >my_changes.patch” will be fine, otherwise ”diff -u sourcefile.c.orig sourcefile.c >my_changes.patch” will do.
