Patch File Naming

• JIRA
• Github

We use Apache Yetus to process your patch. It supports the following patterns and procedures for patch file names:

JIRA

If JIRA support is configured, attach the patch to the given ISSUE and
click 'Submit Patch'. The patch file should be named one of:

• ISSUE.patch
• ISSUE.###.patch
• ISSUE.branch.###.patch
• ISSUE-branch-###.patch
• ISSUE.###.branch.patch
• ISSUE-branch.###.patch

The meaning of the subpart are the following:

• ISSUE: JIRA key (e.g. YETUS-1)
• branch: either the name of a branch or a git hash prefixed with git (e.g. branch-2.8 or git8e55427b35)
• ###: revision of the patch (e.g. 00 or 01)

Github

If Github support is also configured, a comment that contains a link to a Pull Request's patch file (e.g., https://github.com/user/repo/pull/1.patch) will pull the patch from the given Github PR.
