This patches folder is managed by quilt, which is a tool for automatic patch
application and removal. To use quilt with the patches in this directory,
navigate to the top level directory of this repository, and do:
$ quilt setup patches/series
To add an externally created patch (in other words, one created with ```diff
--git``` or ```git diff```), place that .patch or .diff file in this directory,
and do:
$ quilt import patches/<patchfile>
Then, to apply the new patch, do:
$ quilt push
Removing patches from the stack can be done with:
$ quilt pop
Please see the man quilt(1) for more information on adding and importing new
patches. The debian package maintainer guides also have chapters on quilt
usage.
