repatched
Mended a second
Repatched means patched again—a software fix applied after an earlier patch, or a physical repair redone.
In computing, software gets repatched when the first update failed or introduced new bugs: The server was repatched overnight after the security fix broke login.
For physical objects, it suggests mending something that was already mended once: The tire had been repatched so many times it barely held air.
