Hello, writing this as I'm demoralized. This whole package feels cursed. It was 
an attempt to write an alternative to GNU patch because of it's security 
vulnerabilities (are they really even that bad?), which was then abandoned, 
picked up by a group who's making a C package manager (who wrote it in Python?) 
and hasn't received much change, and barely has any popularity on GitHub. Plus 
for some reason the tests/docs directories aren't shipping with pypi, and since 
I don't feel any huge addiction to conan (that C package manager) I'm 
unfortunately, giving up here again (ashamed to say this after my pyupgrade 
stuff...)

The two packaging attempts are now at:
