Hi,
The behaviour of git apply --directory seems a little confusing. It looks to be dependent on the current directory, but I can't use relative paths to apply a patch in one directory to a sibling directory. Absolute paths don't work either. I'd expected the parameter to either be relative to the git repository root, or to expand relative directories.
Any thoughts?
