The original plan was to do 3-way merge between local working tree,
index and the patch being applied, but that was never implemented.
Retire the flag to control its behaviour.

This patch teaches 'git-apply --index' to automatically check
out a file being patched. This happens only when the working

A patch that contains no actual diff, and that doesn't change any
meta-data is bad. It shouldn't be a patch at all, and git-apply shouldn't
just accept it.
This caused a corrupted patch to be silently applied as an empty change in
the kernel, because the corruption ended up making the patch look empty.
An example of such a patch is one that contains the patch header, but
where the initial fragment header (the "@@ -nr,.." line) is missing,
causing us to not parse any fragments.
The real "patch" program will also flag such patches as bad, with the
message
patch: **** Only garbage was found in the patch input.
and we should do likewise.

The message "\ No newline at end of file" used by diff(1) to mark
an incomplete line is locale dependent. We can't assume more than
that it begins with "\ ".
For example, given two files, "foo" and "bar", with appropriate
contents, 'diff -u foo bar' will produce the following output on
my system:
--- foo 2005-09-04 18:59:38.000000000 +0200
+++ bar 2005-09-04 18:59:16.000000000 +0200
@@ -1 +1 @@
-foobar
+foo

[jc: the check for the marker still uses the line length being no less
than 12 bytes for a sanity check, but I think it is safe to assume
that in other locales. I haven't checked the .po files from diff, tho'.]

GCC's format __attribute__ is good for checking errors, especially
with -Wformat=2 parameter. This fixes most of the reported problems
against 2005-08-09 snapshot.
When git-apply was printing out long filenames, it used to just truncate
them to show the last "max_len" characters of the filename. Which can be
really quite ugly (note the two filenames that have just been silently
truncated from the beginning - it looks even worse when there are lots
of them, like there were in the current v2.6.13-rc4 cris arch update):

The parsing code had a bug that failed to recognize an
incomplete line at the end of a fragment, and the fragment
application code had a comparison bug to recognize such. Fix
them to handle incomplete lines correctly.

We write them under another name and rename them to their destination,
so that if something bad happens in the middle, we won't have caused any
bigger harm.
Also, this makes the writing be NFS "intr" safe, and as a side effects
makes sure that if the target is hardlinked (or symlinked) we will have
broken the link.

Applying Andrew's latest patch-bomb showed us failing miserably if a new
subdirectory needed to be created.. That said, it's uncommon enough
that it's worth optimistically assuming it won't be needed, and then
creating the subdirectories only on failure.
Diffs with only mode changes didn't pass through git-apply --stat.

silently returns zero. Duh. ]

A meaningful (ie non-empty) git patch always has more information in the
header than just the "diff --git" line itself: it needs to have either a
patch associated with it (which implies "---" and "+++" lines in the
header) or it needs to have rename/copy/delete/create information in it.
Just ignore git patches which have no change information. Otherwise we'll
end up with a patch that doesn't have filenames etc filled in, and we'll
be unhappy.
Clearly even Junio felt git "rename" header lines should say "from/to"
instead of "old/new", since he wrote the documentation that way.
This way it also matches "copy".
git-apply will accept both versions, at least for a while.
It's not "rename from" and "rename to", it's "rename old" and "rename new".
Which is illogical and doesn't match the "copy from/to" case, but that's
life. Maybe Junio will fix it up one of these days.
We update the index only if the "--index" flag is given,
so you can actually use this as a strange kind of "patch"
program even for non-git usage. Not that you'd likely
want to, but it comes in handy for testing.
This _should_ more or less get everythign right, but as
usual I leave the testing to the usrs..
This applies the fragments in memory, but doesn't actually
write the results out to the files yet. But we now do all the
difficult parts, the rest is just basically writing the
results out and updating the index.
Right now it requires that the fragment offsets be exact,
and it doesn't actually apply the fragment yet, but it
does find where it goes and verify the data.
Next step: actually applying the fragment changes.
It had already tried to do that, but with the independent
rounding of the number of '+' and '-' characters, it would
sometimes do 80-char lines after all.
The way broken deletes and creates are shown in the -p
(diff-patch) output format has become consistent with how
rename/copy edits are shown. They will show "dissimilarity
index" value, immediately following the "deleted file mode" and
"new file mode" lines.
The git-apply is taught to grok such an extended header.

Make it a clear two-phase thing: first a read-only parse of
the patch itself (which is independent of any current index
information), and then the second phase actually uses the patch.
The second phase might not be a real apply, it could be just a
diffstat, for example. Which is trivial to do once the patch is
parsed.
Not important but I am a bit annoyed by gcc complaining about the
control falling out of the function without returning value.

There's some duplication of filenames when doing filename operations
(creates, deletes, renames and copies), and this makes us verify that
the pathnames match when they should.
.. and print out the information. This sets up all the pathname
information, and whether it's a new file, deleted file, rename,
copy or whatever.
It's slowly getting to the point where it all comes together,
and we can actually apply all the information that we've gathered.
In particular, give line numbers when detecting corrupt patches.
This makes the tool a lot more friendly (indeed, much more so
than regular "patch", I think).
This applies git patches (and old-style unified diffs)
in the index, rather than doing it in the working directory.
That allows for a lot more flexibility, and means that if a
patch fails, we aren't going to mess up the working directory.
NOTE! This is just the first cut at it, and right now it only
parses the incoming patch, it doesn't actually apply it yet.
