Hmm, I found some stuff in Eclipse Help:

Can anybody explain the meanings and uses for this options?
Thanks
* If a common prefix of the path names stored in the patch file doesn't match the path names in you current workspace, you can Ignore leading path name segments.
* Adjust the Fuzz factor (patch terminology). This factor indicates the amount of hunk context lines to ignore. The default value is zero, which means that all lines need to match. For the fuzz factor equal one it's the first and last line of context. Press the Guess to calculate the fuzz factor that will allow the most hunks to be matched.
* Use the Reverse patch option for patch files that already have been applied to your workspace. This option is also useful to undo or redo a patch.
For Workspace patches, you can select another project in your workspace to apply the patch changes to. To do this, select a project in the top pane and select Move from the context menu. This will launch a dialog with a list of all available projects in your workspace. Select a project and click OK; the patch changes will be applied to your selected project.
* Use the Show Excluded option to show the hunks which you have already selected to not include in the patch.
