Yes, you're right, sorry. I will correct it.

I told I prefer using File::Spec->devnull() everywhere, but I have no idea how
could I use it directly in `...`. Accordingly I use local variable same as in
svn-create-patch originally. Have you got better idea to solve this problem?

> Is devnull() always a string path?
You can find devNull() here: http://perldoc.perl.org/File/Spec.html
"Returns a string representation of the null device."
It works correctly, we used it previosly in WebKit scripts.
