Here is other output the git apply command can generate, and what it means. If this happens, please check your location in the directory tree - git apply may work from another location.Īn alternative to git apply is to use the patch command: $ patch -p1 < example.patch However, if running git apply from within your own local git working copy, it's possible that even with the -v (verbose) flag, git apply will do nothing, and give no output. If you want to see what's going on behind the scenes, you can use the -v (verbose) flag: $ git apply -v example.patchĪpplied patch includes/common.inc cleanly. When git apply is working normally, you get no output at all: $ git apply example.patch
