git apply

Apply a patch to files and/or to the index. More information: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-apply.

• Print messages about the patched files:

git apply --verbose {{path/to/file}}

• Apply and add the patched files to the index:

git apply --index {{path/to/file}}

• Apply a remote patch file:

curl {{https://example.com/file.patch}} | git apply

• Output diffstat for the input and apply the patch:

git apply --stat --apply {{path/to/file}}

• Apply the patch in reverse:

git apply --reverse {{path/to/file}}

• Store the patch result in the index without modifying the working tree:

git apply --cache {{path/to/file}}
