Apply patch in Sync view
Contents
Problem
Provide an alternative way of applying patches. Desired behavior, which could in future replace the current one, is to use the Synchronize View to display content of a patch, resolve potential conflicts and apply the patch eventually. This way while the comparison is being done, other features of Eclipse are available to use, we are not bounded to the current Apply Patch wizard.
This is tracked by bug 236169.
