Re: [PATCH 4/4] patch: suffix patch files copied to .applied_patches with "~"

[Henning Schild <henning.schild@siemens.com>]

I think that whole patching keeps the files so we can roll back and i
think Jan wanted to somehow continue working on it using quilt.

Renaming that file might break that, did you check?

I guess we could introduce a test for parts of that by adding a patch
to the hello recipe.
