 OPTIONS
 -------
--p::
-       generate patch (see section on generating patches).
+include::diff-options.txt[]
 
 -q::
        Remain silent even on nonexisting files
 
--R::
-       Swap two inputs; that is, show differences from on-disk files
-       to cache contents.
-
--B::
-       Break complete rewrite changes into pairs of delete and create.
-
--M::
-       Detect renames.
-
--C::
-       Detect copies as well as renames.
-
---find-copies-harder::
-       By default, -C option finds copies only if the original
-       file of the copy was modified in the same changeset for
-       performance reasons.  This flag makes the command
-       inspect unmodified files as candidates for the source of
-       copy.  This is a very expensive operation for large
-       projects, so use it with caution.
-
--S<string>::
-       Look for differences that contains the change in <string>.
-
---pickaxe-all::
-       When -S finds a change, show all the changes in that
-       changeset, not just the files that contains the change
-       in <string>.
-
--O<orderfile>::
-       Output the patch in the order specified in the
-       <orderfile>, which has one shell glob pattern per line.
-
--r::
-       This flag does not mean anything.  It is there only to match
-       git-diff-tree.  Unlike git-diff-tree, git-diff-files always looks
-       at all the subdirectories.
