Subject: git apply won't work
Message-ID: <a6d7dc140903121614s229ce97an2cb5737ef46c0421@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

I did the following:

edited
did commit 1
edited
did commit 2
edited
did commit 3

Now I want to patch the changes between 2 and 3 onto 1, i.e. have commit 3 but
with the changes from commit 2 removed. I created a branch where I reset
it to commit 1 and then tried to apply the diff between 3 and 2.

The patch however won't patch certain files. It contains the excerpt below,
for example, so it should be patching directory.c but it isn't. The command
I'm running is just:

% git apply filesys.patch

What am I doing wrong?


diff --git a/src/filesys/directory.c b/src/filesys/directory.c
