All except these two. What are "patches"? Is this some kind of "diff"
file, or a set of modified fiels, or a completely different package? How
can one apply patches on a Mac? How do multiple patches cooperate?

And "CVS" is one of the most daunting things I've ever seen. All I
understand, and even that can be wrong, is that one can "lock" a file
for modification, saying "I'm working on it!". How this can allow other
people to accept or reject changes applied by this person: I have not a
clue.
