Took a look. Seems like a useful program... but unfortunately, it
doesn't document the patchkit format. Maybe that's a pre-existing
convention that's documented somewhere else?

The important question for Subversion is whether the format is
extensible, so we can put metadata (properties) into the patchkits
without making them incompatible with `applypatch'. Do you happen to
know the answer?

(And are there any other important questions I'm forgetting? :-) )
