From: Jonas Flodén Date: Fri, 16 Jan 2009 14:34:47 GMT Subject: [PATCH/RFC] git-am: Make it easier to see which patch failed Message-ID: <636ecac0901160634r586c72a0r9bb63c6f019f5bff@mail.gmail.com> In-Reply-To: When git-am fails it's not always easy to see which patch failed, since it's often hidden by a lot of error messages. Add an extra line which prints the name of the failed patch just before the resolve message to make it easier to find.

Though the line could get very long. This makes the line stand out a little more. git-am.sh | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-am.sh b/git-am.sh index 4b157fe..09c2f9c 100755 --- a/git-am.sh +++ b/git-am.sh @@ -501,7 +501,7 @@ do fi if test $apply_status != 0 then - echo Patch failed at $msgnum. + printf '\nPatch failed at %s (%s)\n' "$msgnum" "$FIRSTLINE" stop_here_user_resolve $this fi -- 1.6.1.28.gc32f76
