Comment: Added notes about making sure your local sandbox is up to date

...

to see which files have been modified (they start with an "M") or added (which start with a "?").

Then do:

$ svn diff applications/product/entity/ applications/product/script/org/ofbiz/shipment/shipment/ShipmentServices.xml > product-shipment.diff

...

For consistency, please make your patch files from the ofbiz/ directory.

Make sure that the from/current revision of your local sandbox (checkout) is the current revision in SVN. The local revision can be checked by doing:

$ svn info

To make sure you have the most recent revision always do an SVN update before doing the patch with svn diff, something like this:

$ svn up

This must always be done before submitting a patch otherwise the patch just won't work. If your local sandbox is checked out from a separate SVN repository following the vendor branch pattern instead of directly from the OFBiz SVN, then you should do a vendor branch update, merge, and then local update in your sandbox before doing the svn diff to create the patch.

Next upload your patch file to your JIRA issue.
