What function do exclamation marks in patch files have, what are they there
for?

eg
--- 25,32 ----
*************** struct sort_struct {
*** 1553,1562 ****

  int num_of_cmds;


! void sort_commands(void)
! {
    int a, b, tmp;

    ACMD(do_action);

--- 1552,1560 ----

  int num_of_cmds;


! void sort_commands(void) {
    int a, b, tmp;

    ACMD(do_action);

*************** void sort_commands(void)
*** 1565,1592 ****
