# DAMASK patching
This folder contains patches that modify the functionality of the current development version of DAMASK ahead of the corresponding adoption in the official release.
## Usage
```bash
cd DAMASK_ROOT
patch -p1 < installation/patch/nameOfPatch
```
## Available patches
* **fwbw_derivative** switches the default spatial derivative from continuous to forward/backward difference.
This generally reduces spurious oscillations in the result as the spatial accuracy of the derivative is then compatible with the underlying solution grid.
* **PETSc-3.8** adjusts all includes and calls to PETSc to follow the 3.8.x API.
This allows to use the most recent version of PETSc.
