As far as I can tell, the commands:
"diff -u -F^f" and "diff -u -p"
produce the same output. However, the former seems to be preferred in the handbook documentation. Is there some reason to prefer it?
No, there is only a historical reason: When I read the diff docs -F^f made more sense to me. -p refers to C which isn't PHP. :p Cheers, Gerhard
