Default How to apply a patch?

Greetings all,

I was wondering if there is some explanation how to apply patches in FreeBSD.

Let us say that a patch file somePatch.patch exists. How does one apply it?

Kindest regards,

M

patch(1) is a start. The patch file should have a path to the file to be patched.
