cvs diff -RuN is good (obviously this needs to be against a tree checked out from some kind of cvs repository, either anoncvs or a local mirror). if you add or remove files (e.g. patches), you can 'cvs add XX' or 'cvs rm XX' and this file will be included in the patch. (to add/rm a directory is more fiddly).
