     1 To make it easier to manage the large number of patches expected for Go at
       
     2 different points in the release cycle (due to the frequent updates by
       
     3 upstream and our own internal developmenmt), the patches in this directory
       
     4 are named as follows:
       
     5 
       
     6 XXXX-$name.patch
       
     7 
       
     8 The XXXX (matching git's 4-digit patch numbering scheme) should be a
       
     9 numeric value in the range of:
       
    10 
       
    11 0000-0499:      patches taken directly from upstream repository release
       
    12                 branch
       
    13 
       
    14 0500-0599:      patches we've contributed to upstream, but are not yet part
       
    15                 of the current release
       
    16 
       
    17 0600-0699:      patches not suitable for upstream that we need to build;
       
    18                 these should be rare
       
    19 
       
    20 0700-9999:      reserved for future use
