Operator apply_diffs.sh

Using Ubuntu Budgie

The error you are encountering is due to incorrect syntax in the script. It seems that the script is trying to compare strings using the == operator, which is not supported by the sh shell. Instead, you should use the = operator to compare strings.

Here is the corrected script:

#!/bin/bash

set -e

DIFFS_DIR="ldap-overleaf-sl/sharelatex_diff"
ORI_DIR="ldap-overleaf-sl/sharelatex_ori"
PATCHED_DIR="ldap-overleaf-sl/sharelatex"

for diff_file in "$DIFFS_DIR"/*.diff; do
    filename=$(basename "$diff_file" ".diff")
    if [ "$filename" = ".gitkeep" ]; then
        continue
    fi

    original_file="$ORI_DIR/$filename"
    patched_file="$PATCHED_DIR/$filename"

    if [ -f "$original_file" ]; then
        cp "$original_file" "$patched_file"
        patch "$patched_file" "$diff_file"
    else
        echo "No original file for $filename in $ORI_DIR."
    fi
done

Explanation of Corrections:
Comparison Operator:

Replaced == with = in the line if [ "$filename" = ".gitkeep" ]; then.
Shebang:

Ensure the script uses #!/bin/bash to guarantee it is interpreted by Bash, which supports array syntax and other advanced shell features.
How to Run the Script:
To run the script, use the bash command instead of sh:

sudo bash scripts/apply_diffs.sh
This ensures that the script is interpreted by Bash, which supports array syntax and other advanced shell features.

Verification of Patches:
To verify if the patches were applied correctly, you can compare the original files with the patched files. For example, you can use the diff command to compare the files:

diff "$ORI_DIR/$filename" "$PATCHED_DIR/$filename"
If the patches were applied correctly, you should see the differences between the original files and the patched files.
