bug report Invoking 'patch' failed for a .sh file

[Avner Ben Hanoch <avnerb mellanox com>]

Hi,

I am using meld for the 1st day.  It looks cool.
I got the following error when trying to show changes for a *.sh file.  
I am using RHEL6.0, with git version 1.7.1, and with patch version 2.6.  I have no problem to see changes for other files (*.cc & *.xml) in meld.

--- copy of the error message ---

Invoking 'patch' failed.

Maybe you don't have 'GNU patch' installed, or you use an untested version of Git.

Please send email bug report to: meld-list gnome org

Containing the following information:

- meld version: '1.4.0'
- source control software type: 'Git'
- source control software version: '1.7.1'
- the output of 'git diff --relative HEAD somefile.txt'
- patch command: 'patch --strip=1 --reverse --directory=/tmp/tmpdDFeFx-meld'
(no need to actually run it, just provide the command line)

--- end of copy ---

Regards,
  Avner
