Unified Format
--------------
The unified output format is a variation on the context format that
is more compact because it omits redundant context lines. To select
this output format, use the `-U LINES', `--unified[=LINES]', or `-u'
option. The argument LINES is the number of lines of context to show.
When it is not given, it defaults to three.
At present, only GNU `diff' can produce this format and only GNU
`patch' can automatically apply diffs in this format. For proper
operation, `patch' typically needs at least three lines of context.
