Why so many empty updates, forgot to run `p4 revert -a ...' :-)?

Well, I didn't want to manually p4 edit all the files the patch would
touch and I'm not exactly familiar with p4. ;-)

Well, what I do before patching is `p4 edit ...' in the top-level directory, than apply a patch, then do adds/deletes (I don't know how to make this procedure enjoyable in Perforce as opposed to simplicity of CVS), than do `p4 revert -a ...'. Always double-check this "-a" thing, it's the most important part. See `p4 help revert' for info.
HTH,

Sergey.
