Needs an easy way to update an existing app to the latest version of the patch #80

The last two updates of the google app engine SDK have broken app engine
patch but afaik there's no easy way to update the patch in an existing app.

The update path is described here:
http://code.google.com/p/app-engine-patch/wiki/GettingStarted

If you want to update an existing project please follow these steps:
 * download and unzip the most recent sample project
 * open your project's "common" folder
 * replace everything in your "common" folder with the contents of the sample
project's "common" folder
 * read the release notes, so you don't miss any important changes

What do you want to see improved? I can't code an automated updater because I 
risk
destroying your source code (if you place any custom files in the "common" 
folder).

I missed the update doc, maybe it would be worth breaking it out into a 
separate wiki
page?

I'm not sure...if I remove it from the GettingStarted page it might get missed, 
too.
I've changed the main project page, instead. It explicitly says that you should 
read
GettingStarted for installation/upgrade instructions.
