prompt has fuzzy filtering which is more discoverable than the menu
mode's regex filtering (because that one needs / to trigger it).
There are no important differences left, so replace the menu builtin
with a prompt-based command.
prompt does not support markup in the completion menu, so drop that
feature for now.
Running an invalid command like "grep -abc" shows no output at all.
Let's give better feedback by showing the error message from grep.
We used to do this until an unrelated change, bd5955c73 (grep: remove
eventual \r, 2013-02-13).
This adds a somewhat discoverable frontend for common uses of the
patch command.
Here are some frequently used commands
# apply selected changes
git apply
# revert selected changes
git apply -R
# stage selected changes
git apply --cached
# unstage selected changes
git apply --cached -R
# apply selected changes and stage them
git apply --index
For everyday use that's a lot of typing so I recommend adding mappings.
One of the features I miss most from Magit/Fugitive/Tig is to
apply/revert/stage/unstage individual hunks or even exactly the
selected line(s). This provides a much more convenient way of
splitting changes than "git add/restore -p".
Implement a "patch" command that applies the selected lines within
a diff by piping them to the "patch" program.
It can also feed other programs like "git apply" (see the next commit).

Interestingly, :patch is defined outside the "patch" module. This is
to make it readily available for interactive use.
Putting it into the module does not save any work.
I tentatively added a patch module anyway so we can explicitly declare
this dependency.. although there is the argument that this is not
really needed?
This commit adds `diff_add_char`, `diff_mod_char`, `diff_del_char` and `diff_top_char` as `str` options, with typical
defaults.
This commit also replaces the hard coded +, _, ≃, etc. hardcoded characters in `git update-diff` to use the options from
above.
