Then we'll be in patching hell, because patches will require proper ordering and depend on each other.
Don't we have that already? Does current patches do not change the ID or add a new?
I currently use 5 patches regularly, with no collisions and no patch ordering dependencies. 3 of the 5 patch menu.c without collisions. None of them adds any kind of ID string.
Do you always know exactly which patches were manually applied, say 3 weeks later...i wouldn't.
Actually... My VDR + plugin sources are built from the tars by a prepare script so I can always reproduce the current code base, and I can easily upgrade to newer versions without loosing anything. I can reconstruct every major version I've used since end of January.
