Patchsets for some Emacs packages have become too large to keep them
in the ebuild repository, and are therefore maintained in a separate
repository. From there, they are bundled up into a tar archive which
is distributed via the Gentoo mirroring system. Specific information
about the patches can usually be found at the top of each patch.

The patches are kept in the following Git repository, master branch:
   https://anongit.gentoo.org/git/proj/emacs-patches.git
   git+ssh://git@git.gentoo.org/proj/emacs-patches.git
   https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/emacs-patches.git

Patch naming follows this convention:
   <number>_<arch>_<description>.patch
The <number> is used for consistent patch ordering. The <arch> field
is ignored but should be "all" for backward compatibility. (Applying
patches only for a specific architecture is not supported any more.)
