| `-U<n>`:: | |
| `--unified=<n>`:: | |
| Generate diffs with _<n>_ lines of context. The number of context | |
| lines defaults to `diff.context` or 3 if the configuration variable | |
| is unset. (`-U` without `<n>` is silently accepted as a synonym for | |
| `-p` due to a historical accident). | |
| `--inter-hunk-context=<n>`:: | |
| Show the context between diff hunks, up to the specified _<number>_ | |
| of lines, thereby fusing hunks that are close to each other. | |
| Defaults to `diff.interHunkContext` or 0 if the config option | |
| is unset. |
