to apply cleanly to the latest version of Drupal

Re-roll patches to apply clearly to the latest version of Drupal

In this part, I am going to update or "re-roll" patches to apply to a newer version of Drupal. I will classified this section into 4 steps.

1.Go to Drupal core issues and search a patch which need to be reviewed by filtering the list of issues tagged as "Needs reroll".

In my case, i am selecting "reroll-1875974-160.patch and I am going to reroll it.

2.Then do the following code below:

   

   CODE:

• cd /path/to/drupal

• git pull

• git apply --check 1875974-statistics_config_settings-5.patch

Result of git apply --check 1875974-statistics_config_setting-5.patch

3.We need to Commit the patch's changes to your local branch.

CODE:

            git status

           git commit -am "Applying patch from issue 1875974"

git commit -am "Applying patch from issue 1875974"

4.Attempt of pulling all of the changes

CODE:

           git rebase 8.2.x
