Better way to manage patches?
Use git and branches. Apply each patch to a new branch, then merge them to another branch. This way you have a "master" branch that's not patched, and other branches with applied patches. I did it myself and I think this is a perfect way to do that. https://github.com/minusium/st

Better way to manage patches?
https://github.com/bakkeby/st-flexipatch -- "The flexipatch builds have a different take on patching where preprocessor directives are used to decide whether or not to include a patch during build time. This means, for better or worse, that the code contains both the patched and the original code. The aim being that you can pick and mix your patches from a configuration file and just compile."
