+'git apply' [--stat] [--numstat] [--summary] [--check] [--index | --intent-to-add] [--3way]
[--apply] [--no-add] [--build-fake-ancestor=<file>] [-R | --reverse]
[--allow-binary-replacement | --binary] [--reject] [-z]
[-p<n>] [-C<n>] [--inaccurate-eof] [--recount] [--cached]
cached data, apply the patch, and store the result in the index
without using the working tree. This implies `--index`.
+--intent-to-add::
+ When applying the patch only to the working tree, mark new
+ files to be added to the index later (see `--intent-to-add`
+ option in linkgit:git-add[1]). This option is ignored unless
+ running in a Git repository and `--index` is not specified.
+ Note that `--index` could be implied by other options such
+ as `--cached` or `--3way`.
+
-3::
--3way::
When the patch does not apply cleanly, fall back on 3-way merge if
the `--unsafe-paths` option to override this safety check. This option
has no effect when `--index` or `--cached` is in use.
-Configuration
+CONFIGURATION
-------------
apply.ignoreWhitespace::
When no `--whitespace` flag is given from the command
line, this configuration item is used as the default.
-Submodules
+SUBMODULES
----------
If the patch contains any changes to submodules then 'git apply'
treats these changes as follows.
