 	patch.  Give this flag after those flags to also apply
 	the patch.
 
+--no-add::
+	When applying a patch, ignore additions made by the
+	patch.  This can be used to extract common part between
+	two files by first running `diff` on them and applying
+	the result with this option, which would apply the
+	deletion part but not addition part.
+
+--allow-binary-replacement::
+	When applying a patch, which is a git-enhanced patch
+	that was prepared to record the pre- and post-image object
+	name in full, and the path being patched exactly matches
+	the object the patch applies to (i.e. "index" line's
+	pre-image object name is what is in the working tree),
+	and the post-image object is available in the object
+	database, use the post-image object as the patch
+	result.  This allows binary files to be patched in a
+	very limited way.
