[PATCH 2/4] apply: apply works outside a repository

["Björn Gustavsson" <bgustavsson@gmail.com>]

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.
