Aloha all,

I pulled the latest org-mode this morning and got an error starting  
emacs afterwards that appears to be tied to org-babel-load-file.

I ran git bisect and ended up here:

     babel: load-file works for symlinks -- Thanks to Martin Kühl

Hi Tom,

Could you try the attached patch and let me know if it fixes the
problem?

If so I'll apply it to the main repo.

Thanks -- Eric

Hi Eric,

Thanks for looking at this so quickly.

Patching from email is a skill still on my horizon.  I tried several  
times without success and without gaining any idea how to resolve the  
problem(s).  You might not want to wait for me to figure out how to  
patch.  It took longer than I'm willing to admit on this list for me  
to get to the point where I could make an emacs backtrace and longer  
still to understand git sufficiently to make sense out of git bisect.   
git am looks very mysterious to me right now.

All the best,
Tom

I have a question: would someone tell me how to interpret or use an
emacs backtrace or point me to reading material?

1. Extract the patch from the email and save it to a file "thepatch"
2. cd into the repo and make sure you are on master using
   git status.
3. Hopefully git status will say 'working directory clean'. But if it
   shows that there are modified files, and *if* these modifications are
   junk resulting from your previous attempt to apply the patch then you
   can blow all outstanding changes away and revert to the last 'proper'
   commit with
   git reset --hard HEAD
4. At this point 'git status' should report that you are on master and
   working dir is clean.
5. Create a temp branch with
   git checkout -b branch-with-patch
6. Check that you are on the new branch with
   git status
7. Apply the patch with
   git apply < thepatch
8. Commit the change in the temp branch with
   git commit -am "the commit message"

Now you can restart emacs and org will pick up the modified files. To go
back to the master branch without the patch that would be

git checkout master

Make sure you don't apply the patch in the master branch.

Hi Eric,

Many thanks to Nick and Dan for showing me how to workaround git am.   
It worked!  The patch program appears to be a bit more forgiving than  
git apply and its relatives.

Eric, the patch to org-babel-tangle.el solves the startup problem I  
had.  Thanks for the quick fix in time for Monday work day.  Org-mode  
and Org-babel are everywhere in my workflow now.

All the best,
Tom
