Sorry for being ambiguous, I really meant adding a comment to the .patch
file itself; when it comes from upstream, for instance, it can be useful
to make it clear that it can simply be dropped in a newer release, for
instance.

Given your explanation, I have added the link Arne gave to this issue.

Pushed, thanks!
