If you want to try out or review a patch generated using Mercurial, do::
- hg import --no-commit somework.patch
+ patch -p1< somework.patch
This will apply the changes in your working copy without committing them.
If the patch was not created by Mercurial (for example, a patch created by
Subversion and thus lacking any ``a``/``b`` directory prefixes in the patch),
-add ``-p0`` to the above command.
+replace ``-p0`` with ``-p1``.
Do you have this backwards? There is no -p0, it's already -p1.
