From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch fixes the following inconsistency: Let's take my bash binary. $ ls -l /bin/bash -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 924200 Jun 22 16:49 /bin/bash $ file /bin/bash /bin/bash: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, stripped Let's try to apply it $ git apply /bin/bash error: No changes $ echo $? 1 Good, rejected and error code is returned. Let's try with --check: $ git apply --check /bin/bash $ echo $? 0 Not exactly what I expected :-) The same happnes if you use an empty file.
