Reject File Names
=================

   The names for reject files (files containing patches that `patch'
could not find a place to apply) are normally the name of the output
file with `.rej' appended (or `#' on systems that do not support long
file names).

   Alternatively, you can tell `patch' to place all of the rejected
patches in a single file.  The `-r REJECT-FILE' or
`--reject-file=REJECT-FILE' option uses REJECT-FILE as the reject file
name.
