Good to see that the right way to forward a patch from another
person is used, but is this a GSoC project?

Wow, "apply" is a biggie, as you'd pretty much have to do
everything, like merging and updating the index and asking rerere to
auto-resolve. Quite a many include files.

This inherits an unfortunate name from the scripted version (it does
more than asserting), but it is OK to keep the original name,
especially in this early step in the series.
Lose the SP in "* revision"; the asterisk sticks to the variable/parameter name.

Kind-a surprising that there is no helper function to do this
already. The implementation looked OK, though.

Applying and updating the index is more resource intensive than
spawning a process, and not having to worry about the process dying
is a benefit, so overall, making this into an internal call would be
a lot lower priority, I would guess.

This is resetting the index to the HEAD, right? reset_head sounds
as if it takes a commit-ish and moves HEAD there.
