What exactly does the word patch mean when refering to 'submitting a patch'?
I've seen this used a lot, especially in the open source world. What what does it mean and what exactly is involved in submitting a patch?

I'm not an AIX guru I've been assigned to patch my systems up to the latest patch level.
First, where do I get the patches for AIX 5.1 and 5.3?
Second, how are they generally installed (i.e. commands and procedures).
Thanks for your help.

You ....
It's a bunch of very good documentations provided by IBM .
You can find informations about all this in a Redbook .
You find the official patches here: http://www-933.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/
I recommend the patching through SMIT.

If you want your 8 delivery X git checkout delivery git merge master git format-patch HEAD
That way, you only have one changed, 2 insertions(+), 0 deletions....
As you already know, a git format-patch -8 HEAD will give you eight patches.

Lexicals....
Evil, but it works.
You can obtain lexicals with the PadWalker module.
A lexical variable is by definition limited to its lexical scope, in other words, the block it is in .
The thing you're mistaken in is that they are not package scoped .

When creating a patch with the "patch" tool or with the built in "patch"-functionality in svn and then applying it to a source tree, is there any way to easily step back from the applied patch to the previous version?

Apply the patch again in reverse (for example patch -R switch)..
Svn revert? You can revert to the previous revision (before the patch was applied).

Blizzard.
The game is still new, so I expect issues.
patch failed :( I think they should just keep the forums down til the game servers are back up Pro and it just keeps going around the patch.
It's not working.
