I use a script (an old version of makepatch, pre-GPL, with my fixes),
https://invisible-island.net/scripts/readme.html#item:makepatch
to get the "Index" lines, in a script which does this
makepatch -diff "diff -u" $1 $2 >$tmp
but diff -Naur will provide equivalent diff's
Perhaps (on applying the patch), you didn't provide the -p1 option.
