lineage-17.1-20201112
Patches for building your own ROM
It's now available to use patches for applying custom modifications outside device/kernel/vendor repos, no more manual editing is required. These new patches are generated from my own lineage-17.1 repo, including most necessary changes for building a functional (or better) lineage rom than mine. The repo diffs will still be kept as a detailed reference to what I did in my lineage-17.1 sources locally.
Each patch is placed into its relative path from the root directory of your lineage repo, and named by its feature. Therefore, it's easier to apply them (or choose the ones you need) than reading repo_17.diff line by line and modify everything manually. Just copy the pacthes from /device/xiaomi/libra/patch and execute git am xxx.patch in correct place, then the changes will be applied automatically.
Don't forget to run git reset HEAD^ after each patch, or the changes will be discarded by repo sync.
