# mastodon-character-increase
mastodon char increase
mastodon char increase as documentated at https://write.as/sweetmeat/customize-mastodon-to-change-your-post-character-limit
### Workflow:
1. check out the mastodon original code
1. check out the Tag your want to patch for (e.q. `git checkout v.4.2.2`)
1. create a new branch from the tag: `git checkout -b v4.2.2-maxChar500`
1. modify the files that need to be modified
1. create the diff patch file: `mastodon git:(v4.2.2-maxChar5000) git format-patch --stdout v4.2.2`
1. verify the patch and save into this repo: `mastodon git:(v4.2.2-maxChar5000) git format-patch --stdout v4.2.2 > ../mastodon-character-increase/character-limit-patch.patch/v4.2.2-increase-character-limit-from-500-to-5000.patch`
