While on http://egcs.cygnus.com/contribute.html we can read:
* The patch itself. If you are accessing the CVS repository at Cygnus,
use "cvs update; cvs diff"; else use "diff -c3p OLD NEW" or
"diff -up OLD NEW".
The result from 'cvs diff' is different from 'diff -cp' when
you don't put the following line in your $HOME/.cvsrc :
diff -cp
(I use a "cvs -z9" in there as well).
Maybe this information should be added to that webpage.
