`gem install gem-patch`

== Usage

`gem patch [options] name-version.gem PATCH [PATCH ...]`

Options:

`-pNUMBER` or `--strip=NUMBER` sets the file name strip count to NUMBER (same options as for `patch` command on Linux machines).
`--verbose` prints additional info and STDOUT from `patch` command

This version is build for RubyGems 2.0.a, a branch for RubyGems 1.8 is also available.
