So, the patch shows that there was another line at the end of the file,
while in reality it isn't (this is due to me excluding a patch from the
series that I'm applying due to other reasons.)

Is this something that git can handle without me editing the patch by
hand?  :)
Linus was quite strict about rejecting any fuzz, but I am
sympathetic to the cause.  I do not mind if somebody comes up
with a patch to add '--fuzz' option to git-apply; we can try
applying first without --fuzz and ask the user if he wants one
from 'git applymbox' main loop when it fails.
