apply: apply works outside a repository The documentation for 'git apply' talks about applying a patch/diff to the index and to the working tree, which seems to imply that it will not work outside a git repository. Actually 'git patch' works outside a repository (which can be useful especially for applying binary or rename patches that the standard "patch" utility cannot handle), so the documentation should mention it. Thanks to Junio for suggesting better wording. Signed-off-by: Björn Gustavsson <bgustavsson@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
