``spack patch``
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After staging, Spack applies patches to downloaded packages, if any
have been specified in the package file. This command will run the
install process throught he fetch, stage, and patch phases. Spack
keeps track of whether patches have already been applied and skips
this step if they have been. If Spack discovers that patches didn't
apply cleanly on some previous run, then it will restage the entire
package before patching.
