Repo analogous for "git apply"

[Ron M]

Hi all,

Is anyone aware of a current tool that is capable of taking a repo
diff file (generated e.g. by "repo diff > myDiff.diff" ) , and
applying it over
an AOSP tree?
I would assume such a functionality would already be integrated into
repo as it would be something as simple as just changing directory to
each
of the "projects" within the repo diff file, extracting the diff from
within the context and running "git apply" - but I have not found
something like that so far,
in particular not in repo, which I am not very familiar with yet.

the link you posted is a git manual. I am looking for a similar repo solution.

well as said here

"repo diff was never intended for use in a "diff | apply" sort of
pipeline."

so find if they implemented "repo apply" and
your all set...LOL
