    72 In order to test the above features:
    73  * either extract the branch, but it's slightly out-of-date compared to the trunk
    74  * or apply the changes on top of the trunk ([1792] as of this writing)
    75 
    76 For the second option:
    77 {{{
    78 $ cd trac/trunk
    79 $ svn merge -r 1760:1792 http://svn.edgewall.com/repos/trac/branches/cboos-dev/anydiff-branch .
    80 ...
    81 C      trac\mimeview\api.py
    82 C      trac\wiki\formatter.py
    83 }}}
    84 Edit the conflicted files and solve the conflicts
    85 by selecting the {{{.working}}} version.
    86 
    87 I was thinking about providing a checkbox for each file entry
    88 in order to generate a ''diff'' containing only the selected changes
    89 (''cherry-picking support'').
    90 A similar feature has also been requested in #1662.

     81=== Diff/Patch ===
     82
     83I've noticed that the diffs that are produced using generalized diffs
     84are not really usable for {{{patch}}}. Especially for the added files.
