.SH DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
.PP
 | 
						|
\fICdiff\fR produces a context diff by first running \fIdiff\fR and then 
 | 
						|
adding context.  
 | 
						|
Some update programs, like \fIpatch\fR, can use context diffs to update
 | 
						|
files, even in the presence of other, independent changes.
