 This might be rather an issue related to the work flow than a real bug but
 I think it is worth to be reported.
 At a stable Gentoo system I'm not able to apply the output of
 {{{
 git diff 1.4.1.. | (cd /var/tmp/portage/net-
 libs/stem-1.4.1/work/stem-1.4.1/; patch -p1 --dry-run)
 }}}
 onto an unpacked 1.4.1 Gentoo package. I get a problem here :
 {{{
 checking file stem/descriptor/microdescriptor.py
 checking file stem/descriptor/networkstatus.py
 Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Assume -R? [n] n
 Apply anyway? [n] n
 Skipping patch.
 12 out of 12 hunks ignored
 checking file stem/descriptor/reader.py
 checking file stem/descriptor/remote.py
 }}}
 However this works:
 {{{
 git diff 1.4.0.. | (cd /var/tmp/portage/net-
 libs/stem-1.4.0/work/stem-1.4.0/; patch -p1 --dry-run)
 }}}
 Which let me wonder, if I made a mistake here -or- the git tag 1.4.1
 wasn't made at a merge point of the git tree ?
