'-' can be used to read + from the standard input. + +--no-merge:: + The default mode of operation is the merge behaviour + which is not implemented yet. This flag explicitly + tells the program not to use the merge behaviour. + +--stat:: + Instead of applying the patch, output diffstat for the + input. Turns off "apply". + +--summary:: + Instead of applying the patch, output a condensed + summary of information obtained from git diff extended + headers, such as creations, renames and mode changes. + Turns off "apply". + +--check:: + Instead of applying the patch, see if the patch is + applicable to the current work tree and/or the index + file and detects errors. Turns off "apply". + +--index:: + When --check is in effect, or when applying the patch + (which is the default when none of the options that + disables it is in effect), make sure the patch is + applicable to what the current index file records. If + the file to be patched in the work tree is not + up-to-date, it is flagged as an error. This flag also + causes the index file to be updated. + +--show-files:: + Show summary of files that are affected by the patch. + +--apply:: + If you use any of the options marked ``Turns off + "apply"'' above, git-apply reads and outputs the + information you asked without actually applying the + patch. Give this flag after those flags to also apply + the patch. + + +Author +------ +Written by Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> + +Documentation +-------------- +Documentation by Junio C Hamano + +GIT +--- +Part of the link:git.html[git] suite + |
