Unfortunately, git-apply is still quite unusable for Cogito. It can do
fuzzy merging now, but here's some random list of more issues I still
have with it (I'm leaving for some two weeks or so of holiday soon so I
won't have to fix them soon personally; it'd be nice if someone did,
though ;) :

  (i) No git-apply -R - well, it seems to me that I revert patches all
the time, don't you?

  (ii) I'd like git-apply to be as verbose as patch is, that is list
the files it touches as it goes

  (iii) There's no reject handling besides "panic" right now - it should
be able to create .rej files so that the user can fix things up

  (iv) I need git-apply to add/remove to/from index new/gone files,
while at the same time...

  (v) I want to allow applying of patches to working copy that is not
completely clean, even on top of modified files

But yes, I'd like cg-patch to move to use git-apply. It's currently
_way_ too scary.
