4485	patchfs: add details to error message	rillig	andrew_b	"I tried opening a patch file generated by CVS via patchfs, and all I got was:
> Unrecognized character in hunk

It would have been helpful to know ''which'' character was unrecognized, and the line number. With that knowledge, I would have been able to preprocess the patch file so that patchfs understands it.

I looked around to find how to copy the existing patchfs to modify it locally, but didn't find any config file or documentation. From looking at mc.ext, it seemed that there is a hard-coded list of filesystems. But that's an entirely different topic."	enhancement	closed	major	4.8.30	mc-vfs	master	fixed					merged	andrew_b
