patches: unify the patches generation instructions
Instead of having a duplicate index for the patches of each tool, add
the instructions do the already existing hacking instructions and link
to it.
Custom instructions on the dwm patches page have been merge into the
the general instructions and related projects moved to the about page.

Patches
-------
+There are two types of patches: The ones that fit to your personal taste and
+the ones you think should be included in mainline.
+
+For patches that should be included in mainline see the
+[community](//suckless.org/community) page and the hackers@ mailing list.
+
+You can use the following instructions to generate and apply patches posted on
+this wiki. On how to upload patches which fit your personal taste and you want
+to show the community, see the [wiki](//suckless.org/wiki) page on how to edit
+the pages you see here.
+
+patch filename format
+---------------------
+The expected format for patches is
+
+For git revisions:
+
+ toolname-patchname-YYYYMMDD-SHORTHASH.diff
+ dwm-allyourbase-20160617-3465bed.diff
+
+The YYYYMMDD date should correspond to the last time the patch has been modified.
+The SHORTHASH here is the seven chars git commit short hash corresponding to the
+last commit of the tool on which the patch can be applied correctly and
+is working with.
+You can get it by taking the first seven chars of the full hash or for example:
+
+ git rev-parse --short <commit-id> (with commit-id: HEAD, commit hash, etc.)
+
+For release versions:
+
+ toolname-patchname-RELEASE.diff
+ dwm-allyourbase-6.1.diff
+
+The RELEASE should correspond to the tool release version, ie 6.1 for dwm-6.1.
diff generation
---------------
For git users:
cd program-directory
- git diff > program-X.Y-yourpatchname.diff
+ git diff > toolname-patchname-YYYYMMDD-SHORTHASH.diff
For tarballs:
cd modified-program-directory/..
- diff -up original-program-directory modified-program-directory > program-X.Y-yourpatchname.diff
-
-where `X.Y` is a dwm tag name or version number.
+ diff -up original-program-directory modified-program-directory > \
+ toolname-patchname-RELEASE.diff
