Description Matthew T. Veety CLA Friend 2005-08-09 11:20:43 EDT 
\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.compare\org\eclipse\compare\internal\patch\PatchMessages.properties

Could you please explain the following terms in more detail? 

"Reverse patch" (PreviewPatchPage_ReversePatch_text). Is a patch reversed here
or is it a "reverse patch"?

"hunk" (PreviewPatchPage_GuessFuzzProgress_format).
Comment 1 Andre Weinand CLA Friend 2005-08-09 15:02:38 EDT 
"Reverse patch": is a Unix term. It means "swap both side of the patch" before applying it. This can be used 
to "undo" a patch that was previously applied or to correct a patch that was generated with both sides 
reversed. So the full option text would be something like "Revert the old and new side of the patch before 
applying it" (see '-R' option here http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xcu/patch.html).

"Hunk": another Unix term: a "hunk" is a single change that can be applied independently from other 
hunks against a file. A patch consists of one or more hunks (see 'hunk' in http://www.opengroup.org/
onlinepubs/007908799/xcu/patch.html).

This bug is targetted for 3.1.1.  There doesn't appear to be any code changes 
involved for this so can it be marked as resolved now - Cam, Matthew, Kit?
Comment 3 Cam-Thu Le CLA Friend 2005-08-30 05:34:17 EDT 
This is just a translation question which needs clarification from developers. 
We just started another translation cycle for the remaining group2 languages, 
meaning Dannish, Norwegian, Finnish, etc...This translation is aimed for past 
3.1.1 but is logged against 3.1.1 as there is no 3.1.2 yet. It's just a 
question from translators overseas.

Thank you for the info. Mat will close the bug when he is in tomorrow.
Comment 4 Cam-Thu Le CLA Friend 2005-08-30 05:56:13 EDT
