kindly try to apply patch #8 on entity_back_reference-1.0.0 tag and review

I have tried to apply patch #8 on

download entity_back_reference-1.0.x branch code zip from entity_back_reference module releases page.

wget https://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/entity_back_reference-1.0.x-dev.zip

unzip entity_back_reference-1.0.x-dev.zip file in in web/modules/custom/ folder

try to apply patch #8

# patch -p1 < 3482928-automated-drupal-11-compatibility-and-readme-update-tag-1.0.0.patch

patching file entity_back_reference.info.yml
Hunk #1 FAILED at 2.

patch was failed because in entity_back_reference.info.yml of 1.0.x-dev code we have version: '1.0.x-dev' hence patch failed.

kindly apply #9 on entity_back_reference-1.0.x and review .

thank you

Still does not work for me.

If I remove this:

-# version: '1.0.0'
-# project: 'entity_back_reference'
-# datestamp: 1722608384
-
-# Information added by Drupal.org packaging script on 2024-08-05

from the patch at #9, then it works.

Here is a new patch

Trying again.

Here is a new version of the patch; I had mistakenly changed ^9 || ^10 for ^9 || ^11; in this version it's ^10 || ^11
