Patch cannot be applied when it simultaneously renames and modifies the file

[j-piasecki]

Description

Patches are successfully applied when they either only modify a specific file or change its name, but fail when doing both at the same time.

Steps to reproduce

patch-package version: 8.0.0

1. Initialize npm project
2. Install any package (for example react-native-wiejskie-ziemniaczki)
3. Select any file in the installed package, rename it and modify its content (in case of the aforementioned package rename README.md to not-readme.txt and add A letter at the end of the file)
4. Generate the patch file
5. Reinstall node_modules
6. Try to apply the patch
7. The patch should get applied, but the error is shown

Interestingly, the patch is applied correctly when running npx patch-package --partial

Here is the patch file that generated error for me:

diff --git a/node_modules/react-native-wiejskie-ziemniaczki/README.md b/node_modules/react-native-wiejskie-ziemniaczki/not-readme.txt

Workaround

Splitting the patch into two parts seems to be working well, i.e.: one patch just to rename the file and the other to modify the content.

+1 to this - I noticed the same with --partial
