It doesn't. It would be great if CMake implemented a "cmake -E patch".

I am downloading the patch binary from GNUWin32 as a pre-step on Windows.
Take a look at winstng:

Problem is patch from GNUWin32 does not support Unix line endings (it will
crash), therefore I am forced to use Windows line endings in every patch
(unix2dos is your friend).
