What is Composer-Patches?
Vaimo Composer Patches is a Composer plugin that allows developers to apply patches to any package within a PHP project. It solves the problem of needing to modify third-party dependencies without maintaining separate forks, enabling custom fixes or compatibility adjustments. The plugin supports patches from both local files and remote URLs, with features like versioning, sequencing, and configurable patch appliers.
