   * Linefeeds according to patched file

 * File renaming, creation and removal

Usage
-----

Download **patch.py** and run it with Python. It is a self-contained
module without external dependencies::

    patch.py diff.patch

You can also run the .zip file::
    
    python patch-1.16.zip diff.patch

Installation
------------

**patch.py** is self sufficient. You can copy it into your repository
and use it from here. This setup will always be repeatable. But if
you need to add `patch` module as a dependency, make sure to use strict
specifiers to avoid hitting an API break when version 2 is released::

    pip install "patch==1.*"
