Bug 38507

svn-apply no longer handles patches with leading junk, e.g. e-mail diffs: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38439#c5 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38455#c6 The explanation is as follows: Previously, if a patch contained leading junk, the code for svn-apply would parse the leading junk into its own "patch" in the array of patches to apply. When svn-apply's patch() subroutine got to this bad patch, svn-apply would skip over it provided the --force option was used (which is what the commit-queue uses). After the following revision-- http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/58495 svn-apply combined any leading junk in with the patch following it. This meant that svn-apply's patch() subroutine would now skip over the patch corresponding to that file whenever the --force option was used. In cases where the ChangeLog entry was the first valid patch after any leading junk (e.g. in the case of many e-mail diffs), this meant that svn-apply would skip over applying the ChangeLog part of the patch -- leading to error messages of the form "Found no modified ChangeLogs". One possible solution to this issue is pretty easy and will also solve the following issue: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33119 I will submit a fix shortly.
