<man patch>

NAME
patch - apply a diff file to an original

SYNOPSIS
patch [options] [originalfile [patchfile]]

but usually just

patch -pnum <patchfile

[...]

OPTIONS

-pnum or --strip=num
Strip the smallest prefix containing num leading slashes from each file name found
in the patch file. A sequence of one or more adjacent slashes is counted as a sin*
gle slash. This controls how file names found in the patch file are treated, in
case you keep your files in a different directory than the person who sent out the
patch. For example, supposing the file name in the patch file was

/u/howard/src/blurfl/blurfl.c

setting -p0 gives the entire file name unmodified, -p1 gives

u/howard/src/blurfl/blurfl.c

without the leading slash, -p4 gives

blurfl/blurfl.c

and not specifying -p at all just gives you blurfl.c. Whatever you end up with is
looked for either in the current directory, or the directory specified by the -d
option.
