Patch react-native 0.59.9 failed

Looks like it’s due to many new files generated under new directory “third-party” after I build my project. I can fix it by excluding that directory: yarn patch-package react-native --exclude third-party

Below is the error log if not exclude: `yarn patch-package react-native yarn run v1.16.0 $ /Users/samuel.cai/Documents/app/node_modules/.bin/patch-package react-native patch-package 6.2.0 • Creating temporary folder • Installing react-native@0.59.9 with yarn • Diffing your files with clean files

Seems to be duplicate of #166

edit: Solution I’m using: https://github.com/ds300/patch-package/issues/166#issuecomment-611002963

edit2: #166 is fixed in v6.4.5 https://github.com/ds300/patch-package/issues/166#issuecomment-790453513 @caisd1998 Does this resolve your issue?

Just to add that --include works for me too

Somehow it doesn’t work for me and I get the same error as above.

Eventually I just did diff -u oldFile.java newFile.java > newFile.patch and renamed it to whatever name patch-package expects.

It feels like there should be some optimisation when --include is specified, while now it’s processing everything anyway and just filters the relevant files.
