Need to see the file it's being applied to.  Commonly a reject will be
because the file the patch was made against is not the same as the file
the patch is applied to.

No -- you just need to create a clean patch in the first place, i.e. one
that applies directly to the same file the developer is using. :-)

It sounds like the tool you're using is generating the patch against a
different revision that you intend.
