Yeah the nomenclature sucks. When talking about the file, the two terms are often used interchangeably (and are usually a .diff or a .patch extension). For fun, the GNU Patch manpage says: "NAME: patch - apply a diff file to an original" followed by: "patch takes a patch file patchfile containing ..." "patch tries to skip any leading garbage, apply the diff, and then ..." |
