-The Debian-specific patches to the kernel source are now created with
-the help of dpatch.  However, the kernel-patch-debian package still
-contains monolithic patches between the various Debian revisions (say,
-2.6.7-1, 2.6.7-2, 2.6.7-3) of an upstream release.  They are generated
-during the build by the monolith target in debian/rules.
-
-Please follow those steps to create a new revision:
-
-1. Copy the last debian/patches/00list-<n> file, incrementing the
-   number by one.
-
-2. If you are adding patches, put them into debian/patches in dpatch
-   format.  You can refer to the other dpatch files for examples.  Add
-   the name of the dpatch file to the 00list-<n+1> file you just
-   created.
-
-3. If you are changing a patch, please do not change the dpatch file.
-   Create a copy, edit the copy, and put its name into the latest
-   00list-file.
-
-4. Add a changelog entry and build the package.
-
-Example:
-
-   Let's say the kernel-patch package is at revision -3, and currently
-   consists of the foo, bar-2 and baz patches.  So the directory
-   debian/patches looks like this:
-
-   00list-1 00list-2 00list-3
-   bar.dpatch bar-2.dpatch baz.dpatch foo.dpatch
-
-   and the 00list-files contain the following lines:
-
-   00list-1: foo baz
-   00list-2: foo bar baz
-   00list-3: foo bar-2 baz
-
-   Now you may need to make another change to the bar patch, and add
-   the qux patch.  So you add qux.dpatch, add the new bar patch as
-   bar-3.dpatch, and create the following new list:
-
-   00list-4: foo bar-3 baz qux
-
-   In the end, the debian/patches directory contains:
-
-   00list-1 00list-2 00list-3 00list-4
-   bar.dpatch bar-2.dpatch bar-3.dpatch baz.dpatch foo.dpatch qux.dpatch
-
-   Easy, huh?
