Description David Kilzer (:ddkilzer) 2007-01-29 22:51:24 PST
While creating the latest patch for Bug 11882, I noticed that I kept getting duplicate copies of all of the new webarchive layout tests and their results in the patch.  The problem was that svn-create-patch saw "LayoutTests/webarchive" as a modified "file", and ran a diff on it.

The correct solution (for now) is to ignore modified directories when creating a patch.

I have a patch to fix this.
