Perhaps you could use a newer version of patch

GNU patch version 2.7 released

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.
