Here are some of the scripts I use to make development easier.
First, I use 'cporig' on every file I am about to change. This makes a
copy with the extension .orig. If an .orig already exists, I am warned.
I can get really fancy with this. I can do 'cporig *' and make a .orig
for every file in the current directory. I can:
cporig `grep -l HeapTuple *`
If I use mkid (from ftp.postgreSQL.org), I can do:
cporig `lid -kn 'fsyncOff'`
and get a copy of every file containing that word. I can then do:
vi `find . -name '*.orig'`
or even better (using mkid):
eid fsyncOff
to edit all those files.
When I am ready to generate a patch, I run 'difforig' command from the top of
the source tree:
I pipe the output of this to a file to hold my patch, and the file names
it processes appear on my screen. It creates a nice patch for me of all
the files I used with cporig.
Finally, I remove my old copies with 'rmorig'.
