Vendor Branches

Tim Ruppert
For those of you who are also managing vendor branches - when you make
changes that are relevant and you'd like to contribute them back, does
building the patch from your vendor branch cause any potential problems?

I have just built my last two patches from my vendor branch copy - which
is pretty darn up to date - but was unsure if submitting them in this
form causes anyone any harm.  Please let me know and I'll adapt if
necessary.

Cheers,
Tim

To be "safe" you can do the diff between the OFBiz vendor branch and  
either your local sandbox or your company/local trunk. If you're  
local modifications are the only ones and you don't have others in  
your company/local trunk then you can just do an "svn diff" which  
will be between your local sandbox and your company trunk and you'll  
be okay.
