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