I would say that bundles are better than a number of patches that have
to be applied manually one after the other. It is more painful to
learn how to use bundles (I can tell because I still am not 100% on
the finer points of merucrial like branching and so on), but in the
end the workflow ends up much better. There was a video tutorial by
William for SD4 I believe and I think it is only somewhere at
sagemath.org, so use that as a starting point.
