Package: patch
Severity: wishlist
I need to be able to patch a tree of files atomically.
I mean, either the patch is applied without any reject or is not applied
at all.
(I think I've seen this method of operation of patch in some revision
control systems like tla.)

Hi,
I had another look at this feature request. I don't think patch is the
place to implement this - it would require walking over all files in
dry-run mode (with all its problems, see
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?25860), and if everything goes well,
re-do all work, which isn't even really feasible when input is from a
pipe.
If you need that behaviour, please try with --dry-run first (or use
some VCS).
Christoph
