yum install patch

To create patch:

diff -crB OriginalFolder ModifiedFolder > folder.patch

-c: context
-r: recursive (multiple level dir)
-B: ignore blank lines

To apply patch:

(dry run first, at target folder – to check for any error)

patch --dry-run -p1 -i folder.patch

If dry run success, do real patching:

patch -p1 -i folder.patch
