Very easy. You obviously need the original file, then

  diff -u theoriginalfile.c modifiedfile.c >mypatch.diff

If you want to diff a directory

  diff -ur /aaa/bbb/ccc-1.3 /aaa/bbb/ccc-1.3_modified >mypatch.diff

(u=human readable, r=recursive)

It's almost easier to create a diff than to apply it (when you have
to choose between option "-p0" and "-p1").

Regards.
