Steps detailing a patch release (using rel-412 (version 4.1.2) is given as an example):

1. Ensure the database changes have been added to the sql/patch.sql(and database.sql for new installs) file (and tests that it works)

2. Increment the $v_realpatch variable in the version.php file

3. Build a zip file of all files that have been modified in rel-412 (since the official 4.1.2 release)

4. Release the zip file

Place it in the patch directory on the open-emr.org website
