develme/database-patch
======================

A patch system designed similar to Laravel's database migration tools. Instead of being used to manage schema, the patch system is used to fill that grey area between a database seeder and a database migration. The intentions of the system is to patch/adjust existing data, but this could be a replacement for seeders since whether a patch has been ran or not is tracked.
