Some cases a git diff without "--- path/to/old" and "+++ path/to/new",
will make current git apply -p2 broken.

1. Prue file mode changes:

    diff --git a/sub1/file1 b/sub2/file1
    old mode 100644
    new mode 100755

2. Remove empty file:

    diff --git a/sub1/file1 b/sub1/file1
    deleted file mode 100644
    index e69de29..0000000

3. Add empty file:

    diff --git a/sub2/file1 b/sub2/file1
    new file mode 100644
    index 0000000..e69de29

4. New binary file:

    diff --git a/sub2/file1 b/sub2/file1
    new file mode 100644
    index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..4dd0c65a410e8aea1608d6b2dd70e74def0012c5
    GIT binary patch
    literal 8
    Pcmb<-^>JfjWMlvU2^Ilc
    
    literal 0
    HcmV?d00001
    
5. Modify binary file:
    diff --git a/sub1/file1 b/sub2/file1
    index f96ec1a8358556543a73b3fb93a0d1c2aad8432a..4dd0c65a410e8aea1608d6b2dd70e74def0012c5 100644
    GIT binary patch
    literal 8
    Pcmb<-^>JfjWMlvU2^Ilc

    literal 7
    Ocmb<-^>JfjWCQ>Qy8&AO
    

I think all these cases can use this testcase in t/t4120-apply-popt.sh:

    +test_expect_success 'apply git diff with -p2 and use default name from header' '
    +       sed -e "/^\(---\|+++\) / d" patch.file > patch.newheader &&
    +       cp file1.saved file1 &&
    +       git apply -p2 patch.newheader
    +'
