For changes which are limited to a file or a subtree I do always prefer a 
patch instead of a branch.
It is easier to handle a patch than a branch. If a branch with the patch 
and the destination branch differ too much
it can be very hard to merge both and to figure out the important 
difference. Therefore a patch often can be applied
easier to "newer" code even if the patch has been made against an older 
code base...but it really depends
from case to case.
