Patch Styles

What are the differences between the Patch Styles?

They are different Standards used when generating diff/patch files. They determine how the patch file is constructed (which symbols/syntax is used). Usually the patch program you are using with the generated reports will require a specific format.

Wikipedia seems to have a decent article on the subject:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diff

Does that help clear things up?

yup. thanks!
