- Split personality apply(): I spawn an external ed command, but also I process ed diffs myself
- On systems where ed is available, users have the option to apply an ed-diff using ed instead of patch
- In my view the point of patch is to directly process edits from diff files, not act as a wrapper around an external editor
- ed-diffs are also not very common so it's even less important to maintain this external-ed code
- This change will help to expose issues with processing ed-diffs, which would be masked by the code not being exercised
