    8686A typical patch has changes to files in Source, files in Tests and the !IntermediateReleaseNotes.text file. Please submit the patch as being rooted in the workspace directory (not in the Source subdirectory or elsewhere). This directory contains the subdirectories Source, Tests, etc.

     88When referring to a ticket in documentation (whether !IntermediateReleaseNotes, comments or checkin notes), use the Trac syntax of ticket:NN. 
     89 
    8890Use "svn add" on new files to get them to show up in the patch. 
    8991 
     
    9294Use ".patch" for the extension and otherwise, name the file as you like. 
    9395 
    94 Attach the patch to a ticket instead of the forums so that it doesn't get "lost". Also, patches are a pleasure to browse in Trac, but not in phpBB. If there was a forum discussion on the topic of the patch, you can always post a link to the ticket in the discussion.
