Apply personal patches when running pacman -Syu? (lemmy.ml)

There's a few packages that I use that I have created personal patches for. When one of these packages gets updated I need to manually change the PKGBUILD to the new version, SHA, etc. Is there any way to have a local patch applied to a package every time a new version of the package is release?

this task is easy on gentoo but hard anywhere else

Not true, it's also doable on NixOS: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Overlays#Adding_patches
