Or did I miss a way that git-apply can take a git patch and apply it
to a tree that isn't a git repo?
Exactly. "git apply" works as a straight "patch" replacement outside
of a git repository. It doesn't actually need a git tree to work.
What is your take on CVE-2015-1196, which brought this /regression/ to
GNU patch?
If "git apply" get /fixed/ for that same CVE, would that /break/ your fix?
