AVRdude patch in Arduino IDE?

[Rob-Millner]

Hi,
Thank you for your amazing work. I think you helped a lot of projects with this.

My question is as follows: can I upload sketches via XBee with Arduino IDE, or do I need to use AVRdude CLI directly?

I've managed to burn your prebuild bootloader (.hex file) to my board. Now I'm trying to upload a sketch. This works via the normal USB connection, however it doesn't work over the XBee.

The problem seems to be that I need a patch for AVRdude, as you mention in the readme file. AVRdude is already included in Arduino IDE. I'm using Arduino IDE 1.8.1, does it already include your AVRdude patch?

As a side note: Is it fine to change the baudrate in the board.txt file to 9600 (XBee baudrate)?

Thanks,
Rob
