Patch Viewer</H1 -><P ->Viewing and reviewing patches in Bugzilla is often difficult due to - lack of context, improper format and the inherent readability issues that - raw patches present.

Viewing Patches in Patch Viewer</H2 -><P ->The main way to view a patch in patch viewer is to click on the - "Diff" link next to a patch in the Attachments list on a bug. You may - also do this within the edit window by clicking the "View Attachment As - Diff" button in the Edit Attachment screen.</P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="section" -><H2 -CLASS="section" -><A -NAME="patchviewer_diff" -></A ->5.7.2. Seeing the Difference Between Two Patches</H2 -><P ->To see the difference between two patches, you must first view the - newer patch in Patch Viewer. Then select the older patch from the - dropdown at the top of the page ("Differences between [dropdown] and - this patch") and click the "Diff" button. This will show you what - is new or changed in the newer patch.</P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="section" -><H2 -CLASS="section" -><A -NAME="patchviewer_context" -></A ->5.7.3. Getting More Context in a Patch</H2 -><P ->To get more context in a patch, you put a number in the textbox at - the top of Patch Viewer ("Patch / File / [textbox]") and hit enter. - This will give you that many lines of context before and after each - change. Alternatively, you can click on the "File" link there and it - will show each change in the full context of the file. This feature only - works against files that were diffed using "cvs diff".</P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="section" -><H2 -CLASS="section" -><A -NAME="patchviewer_collapse" -></A ->5.7.4. Collapsing and Expanding Sections of a Patch</H2 -><P ->To view only a certain set of files in a patch (for example, if a - patch is absolutely huge and you want to only review part of it at a - time), you can click the "(+)" and "(-)" links next to each file (to - expand it or collapse it). If you want to collapse all files or expand - all files, you can click the "Collapse All" and "Expand All" links at the - top of the page.</P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="section" -><H2 -CLASS="section" -><A -NAME="patchviewer_link" -></A ->5.7.5. Linking to a Section of a Patch</H2 -><P ->To link to a section of a patch (for example, if you want to be - able to give someone a URL to show them which part you are talking - about) you simply click the "Link Here" link on the section header. The - resulting URL can be copied and used in discussion. (Copy Link - Location in Mozilla works as well.)</P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="section" -><H2 -CLASS="section" -><A -NAME="patchviewer_bonsai_lxr" -></A ->5.7.6. Going to Bonsai and LXR</H2 -><P ->To go to Bonsai to get blame for the lines you are interested in, - you can click the "Lines XX-YY" link on the section header you are - interested in. This works even if the patch is against an old - version of the file, since Bonsai stores all versions of the file.</P -><P ->To go to LXR, you click on the filename on the file header - (unfortunately, since LXR only does the most recent version, line - numbers are likely to rot).</P -></DIV -><DIV -CLASS="section" -><H2 -CLASS="section" -><A -NAME="patchviewer_unified_diff" -></A ->5.7.7.
