57 | There is a new pretest available in |
58 | ||
59 | <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-$NEW.tar.gz> | |
fda1ff99 FP |
60 | |
61 | Please report results from compiling and running the pretest to | |
62 | <emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org>. Your feedback is necessary for us | |
63 | to know on which platforms the pretest has been tried. | |
64 | ||
65 | If you have the tars from the previous pretest, and you have the | |
66 | \`xdelta' utility, you can instead download the much smaller | |
67 | ||
68 | <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-$OLD-$NEW.xdelta> | |
fda1ff99 FP |
69 | |
70 | You can use a command like | |
71 | ||
72 | $ xdelta patch XDELTA PREVIOUS-TAR CURRENT-TAR | |
73 | ||
74 | to generate the new tar from the old one, where XDELTA is the xdelta | |
75 | file you downloaded, PREVIOUS-TAR is the tar file from the previous | |
76 | pretest, and CURRENT-TAR is the name of the tar file you downloaded. | |
77 | ||
78 | Information about xdelta can be found on the GNU ftp site, in | |
79 | /non-gnu/xdelta.README. | |
