I could fill in Debian, but there's a lot of choice and I wonder how
you would like me to add e.g. the fact that patch systems in Debian
could be anything from none, dpatch, and explicit quilt, to quilt or
git integrated in the source package format.

I am not sure what you mean. Could you give an example or
hypothetical scenario?
