System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill keeps an ffmpeg patch series aligned with upstream changes, reducing the manual effort needed to rebase, refresh, and review patch drift after ffmpeg updates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Patch Rebase Automation: Applies each patch in the series against a chosen ffmpeg ref using a three-way merge workflow.
  • Conflict Triage: Detects failed patches, captures the conflicting hunks, and separates trivial conflicts from issues that need human review.
  • Patch Regeneration: Rebuilds cleanly rebased patches into a refreshed series so integration stays current.
  • Use Case: Run it after an upstream ffmpeg sync or when a build starts failing because a patch no longer applies cleanly.

Quick Start

Use the refresh-ffmpeg-patches skill to rebase the ffmpeg patch series onto the latest upstream ref and report any unresolved conflicts for review.
