man patch?
In all fairness, as I recall "-p" isn't explained all that well.
The diff file has paths to file(s) to patch, something like
--- foo/bar/baz.py.orig
+++ foo/bar/baz.py
and you (and the diff) need to be in foo's parent directory when you run
patch. If you're in "bar" you'll get that error and you'll need to tell
it to strip "foo" -- or however many levels of subdirs -- from the paths.
