Example correct diff generated by `diff -M -B' might look like this:
diff --git a/file1 b/file2
similarity index 100%
rename from file1
rename to file2
diff --git a/file2 b/file1
similarity index 100%
rename from file2
rename to file1
Information about removing `file2' comes after information about creation
of new `file2' (renamed from `file1'). Existing implementation isn't able to
apply such patch, because it has to know in advance which files will be
removed.
This patch populates fn_table with information about removal of files
before calling check_patch() for each patch to be applied.

R. Tyler Ballance reported a mysterious transient repository corruption;
after much digging, it turns out that we were not catching and reporting
memory allocation errors from some calls we make to zlib.
This one _just_ wraps things; it doesn't do the "retry on low memory
error" part, at least not yet. It is an independent issue from the
reporting. Some of the errors are expected and passed back to the caller,
but we die when zlib reports it failed to allocate memory for now.

The previous "parse-opt"ification broke git-apply reading from the
standard input. "git apply A - C <B" is supposed to read patches from
files A, B and C in this order.
Before "parse-opt"ification, we used be able to:
git apply --stat - --apply <A B
to read the patch from file A, showing only the diffstat, and then read the
patch from file B, showing the diffstat and actually applying it. Even
with this fix we cannot do that anymore, but that is so crazy use case I
do not think anybody sane relied on such a broken behaviour.

A git patch that does not change the executable bit records the mode bits
on its "index" line. "git apply" used to interpret this mode exactly the
same way as it interprets the mode recorded on "new mode" line, as the
wish by the patch submitter to set the mode to the one recorded on the
line.
The reason the mode does not agree between the submitter and the receiver
in the first place is because there is _another_ commit that only appears
on one side but not the other since their histories diverged, and that
commit changes the mode. The patch has "index" line but not "new mode"
line because its change is about updating the contents without affecting
the mode. The application of such a patch is an explicit wish by the
submitter to only cherry-pick the commit that updates the contents without
cherry-picking the commit that modifies the mode. Viewed this way, the
current behaviour is problematic, even though the command does warn when
the mode of the path being patched does not match this mode, and a careful
user could detect this inconsistencies between the patch submitter and the
patch receiver.
This changes the semantics of the mode recorded on the "index" line;
instead of interpreting it as the submitter's wish to set the mode to the
recorded value, it merely informs what the mode submitter happened to
have, and the presense of the "index" line is taken as submitter's wish to
keep whatever the mode is on the receiving end.
This is based on the patch originally done by Alexander Potashev with a
minor fix; the tests are mine.

It was already what 'git apply' did in read_old_data(), just export it
as a real function, and make it be more generic.
In particular, this handles the case of the lstat() st_size data not
matching the readlink() return value properly (which apparently happens
at least on NTFS under Linux). But as a result of this you could also
use the new function without even knowing how big the link is going to
be, and it will allocate an appropriately sized buffer.
So we pass in the st_size of the link as just a hint, rather than a
fixed requirement.

We carefully verify that the input to git-apply is sane,
including cross-checking that the filenames we see in "+++"
headers match what was provided on the command line of "diff
--git". When --directory is used, however, we ended up
comparing the unadorned name to one with the prepended root,
causing us to complain about a mismatch.
We simply need to prepend the root directory, if any, when
pulling the name out of the git header.

This allows --include=pathspec, similar to --exclude=pathspec.
The rule when one or both of these are used is that the include/exclude
patterns are examined in the order they are given on the command line, and
the first match determines if a patch to each path is used or not. Hence:
$ git apply --include='specific.h' --exclude='*.h' <diff
would apply the patch to specific.h header file, but all other patches in
the input file to other header files are ignored. A patch to a path that
does not match any include/exclude pattern is used by default if there is
no include pattern on the command line, and ignored if there is any
include pattern.
This originally came from Joe Perches, but both the design of the
semantics and the implementation have been redone complately.

Even after a handfle attempts, match_beginning logic still has corner
cases:

65aadb9 (apply: force matching at the beginning., 2006-05-24)

ee5a317 (Fix "git apply" to correctly enforce "match ..., 2008-04-06)
This is a tricky piece of code.
We still incorrectly enforce "match_beginning" for -U0 matches.
I noticed this while trying out an example sequence from Clemens Buchacher:
$ echo a >victim
$ git add victim
$ echo b >>victim
$ git diff -U0 >patch
$ cat patch
diff --git i/victim w/victim
index 7898192..422c2b7 100644
--- i/victim
+++ w/victim
@@ -1,0 +2 @@ a
+b
$ git apply --cached --unidiff-zero <patch
$ git show :victim
b
a
The change inserts a new line before the second line, but we insist it to
be applied at the beginning. As the result, the code refuses to apply it
at the original offset, and we end up adding the line at the beginning.
Updates to the test script are by Clemens Buchacher.

7ebd52a (Merge branch 'dz/apply-again', 2008-07-01) taught "git-apply" to
grok a (non-git) patch that is a concatenation of separate patches that
touch the same file number of times, by recording the postimage of patch
application of previous round and using it as the preimage for later
rounds.
This "incremental" mode of patch application fundamentally contradicts
with the way git rename/copy patches are designed. When a git patch talks
about a file A getting modified, and a new file B created out of A, like
this:
diff --git a/A b/A
--- a/A
+++ b/A
... change text here ...
diff --git a/A b/B
copy from A
copy to B
--- a/A
+++ b/B
... change text here ...
the second change to produce B does not depend on what is done to A with
the first change in any way. This is explicitly done so for reviewability
of individual patches.
With this commit, we do not look at 'fn_table' that records the postimage
of previous round when applying a patch to produce a new file out of an
existing file.

When working with a lot of people who backport patches all day long, every
once in a while I get a patch that modifies the same file more than once
inside the same patch. git-apply either fails if the second change relies
on the first change or silently drops the first change if the second change
is independent.
The silent part is the scary scenario for us. Also this behaviour is
different from the patch-utils.
I have modified git-apply to create a table of the filenames of files it
modifies such that if a later patch chunk modifies a file in the table it
will buffer the previously changed file instead of reading the original file
from disk.
Logic has been put in to handle creations/deletions/renames/copies. All the
relevant tests of git-apply succeed.
A new test has been added to cover the cases I addressed.
The fix is relatively straight-forward.

When we see no context nor deleted line in the patch, we used to declare
that the patch creates a new file. But some people create an empty file
and then apply a patch to it. Similarly, a patch that delete everything
is not a deletion patch either.
This commit corrects these two issues. Together with the previous commit,
it allows a diff between an empty file and a line-ful file to be treated
as both creation patch and "add stuff to an existing empty file",
depending on the context. A new test t4126 demonstrates the fix.

A patch from a foreign SCM (or plain "diff" output) often have both
preimage and postimage filename on ---/+++ lines even for a patch that
creates a new file. However, when there is a filename for preimage, we
used to insist the file to exist (either in the work tree and/or in the
index). When we cannot be sure by parsing the patch that it is not a
creation patch, we shouldn't complain when if there is no such a file.
This commit fixes the logic.

function while we are at it, as it is getting rather big.
