It may make patching slightly more interesting though, as some
users new to git-gui development may generate a patch in git.git
(using a/git-gui/git-gui.sh as the path) which then would not apply
as-is to the master git-gui development tree.

In this case, a "-p <n>" option to git-am would make sense, no?

Are you saying we just suddenly found a vaild use for a flag which
nobody (except the original submitter) thought was useful?  ;-)

Yes, clearly a -p<n> on git-am would solve the problem quite nicely.

Actually, -p<n> option to git-am is also useful for piping
patches to git-am directly from mail: sometimes people would generate
a patch by hand and this results in patches incorrect -p level.
