Largely irrelevant these days given how well git and mercurial run on
windows, but is anyone aware of a self-contained patch exe that runs on
windows and understands both unified diffs and git diffs?

The goal is to have a simple, single file, no dependency patching tool for
use with automated build recipes like a few of you maintain. Last time I
looked the gnuwin32 `patch` port didn't support git style diffs.

I'd thought of spelunking the git or mercurial source to try to extract the
`git apply` or `hg import` functionality into a single exe, but other siren
songs have been more distracting.
