# prefixes in the "diff" lines stands for the project root directory.
# So we don't have to hunt for the project root.
# And of course, we know that the patch file was generated using git, so we
# know git apply can handle it properly.

# Arguments: file name.
# Return: 0 if it is a git diff; 1 otherwise.
