Hi, I have created a git repository on a remote site and have created patches there. I have copied the files for the base version using which I had created the patch. However, when I use git apply --check, I get error as patch does not apply. Can anyone please help? I'm stuck at this and is very important for my workflow.

Did you
$ git add . # note the <dot>
and
$ git commit
the destination ("base version") repo before applying?-- Cheers, Ray Chuan
Re: How to apply patches
Hi Tay Ray, Thanks for the reply. the problem is now resolved. The problem was that the patches created were in Unix format (only CR) while when I uploaded the patches through FTP site, they were converted to Windows format (CRLF) which was preventing from the patches from getting applied. I changed the files to unix format again and the problem got resolved.
