Are these changes in the php files or in the templates, or both?

I don't understand how we can upgrade if there are template changes? Does the patch overwrite the current templates? What happens to the customizations we've made to the templates?

[kpayne]

The upgrades do not overwrite any files. They are simply patches, they search for a certain set of lines and then modify them. If you've changed the template such that it cannot find that set of lines, it marks that file as failed.
