Patch fails if the patch file isn't completely empty, but with only a header, it obviously isn't. > This change came with commit 031ed720 in the middle of other, apparently > unrelated changes. All the commit message says is: "Fail pushes when GNU > patch exits with a status > 1." But it doesn't say _why_ that change was > made. I don't remember. If the other commits around this commit don't show why, it probably wasn't critical. Thanks, Andreas
