huh, didn't know about qfinish.

If you use emacs, diff-mode is very helpful too.  It will help you
keep the patch correct if you add and remove lines.  For example, when
reading a diff, if I notice that I accidentally deleted or changed a
line that I shouldn't have, I will edit the patch.  It's tricky at
first, but once you get the hang of it, it's really not that bad.  For
example, if I just added a blank line that I shouldn't have, I can
just delete the line and emacs will fix up the diff.  If I
accidentally changed the line, I'll change the '-' at the beginning of
the original line to a ' ' and delete the added line.  Generally emacs
can keep things straight for you when you do this.  I'm guessing that
vi can do the same.
