That depends entirely on the maintainer of the AUR package, there is no "standard" for contributing patches to the maintainer. Some provide a Git{hub,lab,ea} repository for their AUR packages, some don't. Most people who decide to contribute to the maintainer tend to either send the patch by email or put it in a pastebin/gist and put the link in the comments.
