"How do I go about reverting specific commits in the build files?"

Use the --reverse parameter, like this:

Or use 'git revert', or 'git revert --no-commit' if you prefer not to commit it automatically.

cat a5dfd481.diff | patch -p1 --reverse --verbose --no-backup-if-mismatch || exit 1

This is unreliable: git diffs are a superset of the format accepted by GNU patch (and some of the extensions can lead to *different output* with certain older versions of patch, not a failed patch application). If you want to apply git diffs by hand like patch does, use 'git apply'.
