The best is to get your patches merged by upstream. Of course, this
might ask rework of your local changes. Once merged, you will have less
maintenance work and others might benefit from your changes.

If it's really not possible (which I tend to not believe), the way to
maintain and deploy your own gems depends on the number of systems where
you have to deploy it.
