Each file in a patch set has a letter next to it, indicating the type of modification for that file. The following table lists the types of modifications.
| Letter | Modification Type | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| M | Modification | The file existed before this change and is modified. |
| A | Added | The file is newly added. |
| D | Deleted | The file is deleted. |
| R | Renamed | The file is renamed. |
| C | Copied | The file is new and is copied from an existing file. |
If the status is R (Renamed) or C (Copied), the file list also displays the original name of the file below the patch set file.
