This is not a valid patch for PATCH(1). Please try again.
Don't you use git? ;-)
Nah, git and me don't get along well.
Perhaps you could use a newer version of patch

I am pleased to announce that version 2.7 of GNU patch has been released. The following significant changes have happened since the last stable release in December 2009:
* Support for most features of the "diff --git" format, including renames and copies, permission changes, and symlink diffs. Binary diffs are not supported yet; patch will complain and skip them.
