Hello!
This is a proposal to enhance the unshuffle_patch.sh script so that it
will be able to read from stdin and write to stdout.
This would let us use the script in a pipe chain.
For example, the following line could be used to apply a patch directly
from a remote repository:
wget -q -O - http://path.to.the.raw.patch | bash
~/jdk9/common/bin/unshuffle_patch.sh jdk - - | hg patch - --no-commit
(Note, that it would only work, if the repository provides the patches
in the git format, which is not currently the case with
hg.openjdk.java.net.)
Would you please help review/approve this enhancement?
