My point is that this would make updating and integrating single patches
easier. I don't know how you do this currently. As there is no special
makefile rule for applying/removing a single patch I assume you do this
manually which is IMHO more cumbersome than issueing 'quilt push' or
'quilt pop'.

Furthermore how do you update a patch at the moment? Manually as well?
quilt has a refresh command for this. It basically works like a poor man
SCM sandbox.

Robert
