---index-info::
+--build-fake-ancestor <file>::
 	Newer git-diff output has embedded 'index information'
 	for each blob to help identify the original version that
 	the patch applies to.  When this flag is given, and if
-	the original version of the blob is available locally,
-	outputs information about them to the standard output.

++
+When a pure mode change is encountered (which has no index information),
+the information is read from the current index instead.

 	Apply the patch in reverse.
