Dave,

It's the typical patch files created using diff and applied using patch.
What I normally do:

tar xf foo-1.0.tar.bz2 (extracts in the folder foo-1.0)
cp -r foo-1.0 foo-1.0.patched

change all the things needed for my patch in foo-1.0.patched

then
diff -urN foo-1.0 foo-1.0.patched > foo-1.0.patch

The so created patch can be used in a spec file with
%patch -p1

hope this helps you a bit.
Dominique
