Hi,
I recently found out how to set up cvs from Eclipse. I don't have write
acces to the repository, so I have to make patches and send them in via
the bug database.
The problem is: when I right-click a file, and choose Team -> make
patch, this works, but the first line of the patch only gives the file
name, whereas I would like to have its full path in the cvs-tree.
If I use Tortoise outside of Eclipse, it does this just right.
The first few lines look like this:

How can I make Eclipse to give me the same heading as Tortoise (which is
what the bug assignee wants, for ease of applying patches)
Cheers, H.

All you have to do is indicate at what level the patch was created when
you submit it. Then whomever is applying can apply it at the same level.
Patches use relative locations, so as long as someone knows where the
root at which it was created, it will work if they apply it at the same
root.
Another option that is more work for you would be to create a patch of
all your changes from the project root, then revert the project back to
the CVS version, then apply your own patch only accepting the one file
you are interested in (Eclipse lets you select which files to include
when applying a patch), then create a new patch from the root that will
only include the one file that was changed when you applied your first
patch. Problem is that this is a bit of work and must be repeated for
every different patch you want to create.
No matter what, you should search the Bugzilla database to see if anyone
has entered an enhancement request for the option of selecting files for
inclusion/exclusion during patch creation. If no such request exists,
enter one yourself. That is how Eclipse moves forward - users requesting
changes.
HTH,
Eric

I'll do this, and use Tortoise to create the patches in the meantime...
