I'm interested in fixing git issues in svn-apply. I think we may be able to
handle the git-style binary patches (base85 & zlib) and actually I could write
base85 decoder in perl. However, I think the better way is just using
git-apply(1) instead of patch(1) for git binary patches, of course, we still
need to call svn add and rm after patching though. In this way we don't need to
maintain the code to handle git patches. What do you think? If this plan
sounds, I'm happy to work on this.
