causes the index file to be updated.
Apply the patch to both the index and the working tree (or
merely check that it would apply cleanly to both if `--check` is
in effect). Note that `--index` expects index entries and
working tree copies for relevant paths to be identical (their
contents and metadata such as file mode must match), and will
raise an error if they are not, even if the patch would apply
cleanly to both the index and the working tree in isolation.

Apply a patch without touching the working tree. Instead take the
cached data, apply the patch, and store the result in the index
without using the working tree. This implies `--index`.
Apply the patch to just the index, without touching the working
