… repo as patch files (#212) Fixes #198 First of five stacked PRs for the patches. Each builds on the one before: #212 → #213 → #214 → #215 → #216. ## What - New field `patches: <path>` in `.gitnested`: the folder with the local changes as patch files, relative to the subdir. Without it, the patches are off. - New command `git nested patches create [<subdir>]`: - applies the patches on the upstream commit with `git am`, - writes what HEAD has on top as one more patch, with a TODO title, - writes all patches again in one form: no commit id, no signature, named after the title. - The folder is never pushed. `diff` and `status` do not count it. - Nested repos inside the subdir are left out. They can have their own folder. - `verify --patches` applies patches with `git am` now, so a plain diff given as a patch is refused. `--diffs` still uses `git apply`. - New module `patchbuild.py`: the temporary worktree, `git am`, and writing the patches. `verify` uses it too. ## Docs New page `doc/cli/patches.md` and guide `doc/guides/patches.md`. Updated the `.gitnested` reference, `config`, `verify`, the man page and the call diagrams. ## Tests New `tests/e2e/test_patches.py`. The full suite passes with 100% coverage.
