|
|
A patch file normally is a difference listing created with the diff program.
|
|
By applying these differences to the original files, patch creates the patched
|
|
versions. Using patches instead of entirely new tarballs to keep your sources
|
|
up-to-date can save you a lot of download time.</para>
