Hi,
the following sequence might help you to get your tree with local
changes across r5506 and r5507 without too much headache:
svn diff > backup.diff
patch -R -p0 -i backup.diff
svn up
patch -l -p0 -i backup.diff
Please make sure that your local changes don't reintroduce whitespace
(eg. new lines).
patch -l is a modifier where patch doesn't take whitespace changes into
consideration. This option requires gnu patch, but I doubt any coreboot
user but me cares about that.
Regards,
Patrick
