[Box Backup-dev] Where to put my bug fixes?

Hello All,

I have been following the latest discussion on the bug submission
protocol, can I make a suggestion, I have been trying to follow how I
should add my bug fixes to the source tree, and at the mo I am a little
confused, I am happy to follow the pack on this, but once we have a
procedure for this can it be documented on the wiki? This would really
help me sort the outstanding bugs I have found.

Regards

Nick

I know that I've been getting a bit too personal with my personal
branch.=20
Sorry about that.

Do you require me to scrap the current merge branch and re-commit with
one=20
change per commit, or are you (all) happy to review it as it stands,
given=20
that it consists of orthogonal, independent, and self-explanatory
changes=20
(I hope)?

Cheers, Chris.
