this is pretty unusual. I fear your IDE has designed to reorganise things.

Best to do a clean checkout of the trunk -which is always up to date-
and add the new source file.
If the patch has lots of noise in it, dont include those patches. Tests
are nice though; we've always been a bit lax about testing SSH stuff
because its a functional test that needs servers and permissions set up
right, but we could improve that perhaps.
What is your new task trying to do?
