Hi,

I created a .patch file by copying and pasting the patch supplied by
Rainer, read above. I have the fully restored and up to date netman
sources, but I am not sure whether as typed below "git patch" should
actually apply the patch properly.

The command:
edbarx@edbarx-pc:~/netman_from_backup_08.12.2015$ git patch
../rainer_dng-15.12.2015.patch

I also read that the patch can be saved/archived into git, and I think
it is the proper way it should be done.

Can I safely run the command as shown and if possible tell git to
archive/save the patch?
