How about:
"When using the -e flag, v.patch shifts category (cat) values in the
output so that category numbers from the different input maps do not
overlap. This shift is applied to both the category values of the
features and the category values in the attribute tables. Hence, there
is no need to run v.category and v.db.update beforehand."
