This is defined in RFC5789: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5789 This is in active use by GitHub's v3 API, among others. As a quick overview for anyone unfamilar with PATCH, it's basically a partial-PUT, passing only the changes - for instance, let's say you wanted to update a customer's contact email address, you might send a PATCH request to `/customer/42/contactdetails` with a JSON payload describing just the parts which have changed, for instance `{ email: 'bob@example.com' }`.
(Sorry - just have used $ to jump to EOL in insert mode by mistake or something, and didn't notice. Despite it being a simple change, I should have tested it before submitting the PR. /me hangs head)
