<diff-options> are passed to diff(1). The first repeated argument of the above or the first argument starting with a `-' but not a valid msidiff option starts <diff-options>, the first argument not starting with `-' ends them. By default, <diff-options> is -Nup for contents, -U0 for others, and -r which is always passed.
