Essential Git

Applying patches

suggest change

We can use git apply some.patch to have the changes from the .patch file applied to your current working directory. They will be unstaged and need to be committed.

To apply a patch as a commit (with its commit message), use 

git am some.patch

To apply all patch files to the tree: 

git am *.patch
