PATCH is one of the http-request methods

While PUT uploads the entire resource of an already existing entity, PATCH is used to send only the changed attributes of a resource to the server.

The PATCH method was specified in RFC 5789, where its use is described as follows:

Several applications extending the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) require a feature to do partial resource modification. The existing HTTP PUT method only allows a complete replacement of a document. This proposal adds a new HTTP method, PATCH, to modify an existing HTTP resource.

It specifies the following differences to the PUT method:

The difference between the PUT and PATCH requests is reflected in the way the server processes the enclosed entity to modify the resource identified by the Request-URI. In a PUT request, the enclosed entity is considered to be a modified version of the resource stored on the origin server, and the client is requesting that the stored version be replaced. With PATCH, however, the enclosed entity contains a set of instructions describing how a resource currently residing on the origin server should be modified to produce a new version.

See this answer for more information.
