Dear diary, on Mon, Oct 23, 2006 at 09:03:08PM CEST, I got a letter
where Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com> said that...
> In git-cherry.sh:
> 
>   if test -f "$patch/$2"
>   then
>     sign=-
>   else
>     sign=+
>   fi
> 
> Documentation says 'If the change seems to be in the upstream, it is shown on
> the standard output with prefix "+"', however the above does the reverse.  
> When
> the file $patch/$2 exists it is because the patch /is/ in upstream so the sign
> should be "+".
> Signed-off-by: Andy Parkins <andyparkins@gmail.com>
