Could we move the patch to the patches/ folder so this can't be an issue in the future, or could we update to x265 3.6, which doesn't need it?

The problem is that Bitbucket appends a line with the Git version they're using at the end of the patch, or at least they don't filter it out. This should probably be reported to Bitbucket as a bug, but past experiences with Atlassian are not encouraging. :-)
