Probably a very naive question; I would like to try the proposed solution (Bug 8665) and can find the "diff", but when I try and navigate "git", the relevant section (if I have navigated successfully which is dubious as I'm new to "git") <https://github.com/Koha-Community/Koha/tree/master/etc/zebradb/marc_defs/marc21/authorities>, the master appears to stop at Bug 7475.
That isn't the Koha Git repo, although it does look like whoever is managing it is keeping it reasonably in sync[0]. The real koha git repo is here: http://git.koha-community.org/gitweb/?p=koha.git;a=summary Master doesn't stop at 7475, it's just that that was the last thing that is in master that touched those files.
Is there anywhere to find "ready edited" files, rather than copy/paste lines from the diff?
No, not until 8665 gets signed off and pulled into master. Typically you will use git to apply the patch from bugzilla. Copy/pasting lines is quite likely to cause you errors. Best is to make a local copy based on the guide here: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Version_Control_Using_Git which combined with this: http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Git_bz_configuration makes it very easy to apply patches from bugzilla. There will be a significant learning curve, git is a developer tool, and applying patches is something of an advanced topic. Robin.
