Description

Is there a standard form for patch names?

This is just my personal preference, but I've stopped prefixing patch names with the module name like this
cvs diff -up > ~/lightbox2-[issue-number].patch

This is because it makes command line filename completion largely pointless -- everything in the module folder is already called modulename-SOMETHING.
I start with the issue number instead.
