You do both. Changesets are immutable. A patch cannot be modified.
However, new patches can be added for tracking changes to the tree.
You can review the original diff, and you can review how it's tracked
head-of-line changes independently. You can take the original diff and
manually wedge it in if you want, or you can see how the latest
progress differs before submission.
