Would you dare to apply any (of my) scripts for the semantic patch language
directly on the whole directory for multi-media software?

Can you handle bigger patches really better than similar patch series?

from a general change resistance?

Will any development (or management) tools like âquilt foldâ make the regrouping
of possible update steps more convenient and safer?
