by inspecting the patch (e.g. after editing the patch without
adjusting the hunk headers appropriately).
+--directory=<root>::
+ Prepend <root> to all filenames. If a "-p" argument was passed, too,
+ it is applied before prepending the new root.
++
+For example, a patch that talks about updating `a/git-gui.sh` to `b/git-gui.sh`
+can be applied to the file in the working tree `modules/git-gui/git-gui.sh` by
+running `git apply --directory=modules/git-gui`.
