Of course some git diff's are not in a format that patch will like as
far as I can tell.

For example commit 6cdee2f96a97f6da26bd3759c3f8823332fbb438 which has
stuff like:
diff --cc drivers/net/ixp2000/ixpdev.c
index 588b44d,92fb823..1272434
--- a/drivers/net/ixp2000/ixpdev.c
+++ b/drivers/net/ixp2000/ixpdev.c
@@@ -67,9 -68,9 +68,9 @@@ static int ixpdev_xmit(struct sk_buff *
ip->tx_queue_entries++;
if (ip->tx_queue_entries == TX_BUF_COUNT_PER_CHAN)
netif_stop_queue(dev);
- local_irq_enable();
+ local_irq_restore(flags);

- return 0;
+ return NETDEV_TX_OK;
}



Ehm, what does that mean? patch doesn't like it.

Do git merges cause weird diffs?
