If the patch were what you made by running "GNU diff" inside a corresponding subdirectory of another repository (perhaps you wanted to feed uncommitted changes from there to this repository), then you can always use "GNU patch" to apply. If you made such a one-shot patch using git-diff, it will tell you the correct directory to apply to, so...
The difference there is that GNU/Larry Wall diff does not prepend a/ and b/ to the paths. Maybe use this as an indicator for "this patch is relative to project root" vs. "this patch doesn't know where it wants to be applied". A parameter --subdir, or even plain -pN could mean "apply this patch here, now." cheers simon -- Serve - BSD +++ RENT this banner advert +++ ASCII Ribbon /"\ Work - Mac +++ space for low €€€ NOW!1 +++ Campaign \ / Party Enjoy Relax | http://dragonflybsd.org Against HTML \ Dude 2c 2 the max ! http://golden-apple.biz Mail + News / \
