From 8938045a4eae7a9c39631508a3c3d34c50c6257a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2006 15:53:20 -0700 Subject: git-apply --reject: finishing touches. After a failed "git am" attempt: git apply --reject --verbose .dotest/patch applies hunks that are applicable and leaves *.rej files the rejected hunks, and it reports what it is doing. With --index, files with a rejected hunk do not get their index entries updated at all, so "git diff" will show the hunks that successfully got applied. Without --verbose to remind the user that the patch updated some other paths cleanly, it is very easy to lose track of the status of the working tree, so --reject implies --verbose.
