I know. Can’t say anything for Bram, but for me context diffs are harder to read. And, besides, you need some configuration (should not it be “-cr” in place of “-c”?). Why bothering if unified diffs are normally accepted, easier to read, faster created, and do not require configuration? -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
