	+Patches with file names which do not start with [.filename]#patch-# will not be applied automatically.

	After the file has been modified, man:diff[1] is used to record the differences between the original and the modified version. `-u` causes man:diff[1] to produce "unified" diffs, the preferred form.

	=== Patching Conditionally

	Some ports need patches that are only applied for specific FreeBSD versions or when a particular option is enabled or disabled. Conditional patches are specified by placing the full paths to the patch files in `EXTRA_PATCHES`.
	+Conditional patch file names usually start with [.filename]#extra-# although this is not necessary.
	+However, their file names _must not_ start with [.filename]#patch-#.
	+If they do, they are applied unconditionally by the framework which is undesired for conditional patches.
