Well, I could see why, but it really depends on the type of changes.
Unfortunately that makes it impossible to give easy instructions for a
contributor to follow. :-/  For a one-liner -u has the obvious
advantage of putting the changed line directly next to the original,
though.

But yeah, it's probably subjective.  It's not a big deal, as long it's
-c or -u at least.  What I forgot to mention though (and sometimes
forget using myself) is the---for C code---highly useful option -p
(--show-c-function), a real underdog!
