@@ -7,14 +7,16 @@ offsets. You want convenient, non-tedious way to get perfectly fitting one.
How to achieve it:
$ patch-fix-offsets -p1 wrongoffsets.patch > goodoffsets.patch
+$ # alternatively in pipe with recountdiff for extra sanity
Alternatives:
1. apply patch and rediff (possibly changing the format of the patch!)
-$ cp -R <project within which to apply the patch>{,.orig}
+$ cp -pR ${PROJECT_DIR}{,.orig}
$ patch -p1 <wrongoffsets.patch

+$ diff -urN ${PROJECT_DIR}{.orig,} > goodoffsets.patch
+$ mv ${PROJECT_DIR}{.orig,}
