[Quilt-dev] [PATCH] Accept more comments in series files

[Jean Delvare]

Hi all,

A few days ago I gave a try to Andrew Morton's 2.6.12-mm1 broken-out
patch series in quilt. "quilt push -a" choked on the followig line of
the series file:

kprobes-ia64-cmp-ctype-unc-support.patch # fold

It happens that quilt doesn't support this type of comment in series
files. Comments alone on their line are OK, but comments on a patch file
line are not. In fact, quilt expects to find options to pass to the
patch command at this place (like -p1), and it will dumbly pass the
comment to patch, causing push to fail horribly.

Attached is a patch adding support for this kind of comment in series
files. Does this look acceptable?

Thanks,
