 Outputting Diffs in Time Stamp Order
 ------------------------------------
 
    Applying `patch' to a multiple-file diff can result in files whose
 time stamps are out of order.  GNU `patch' has options to restore the
 time stamps of the updated files ( Patching Time Stamps), but
 sometimes it is useful to generate a patch that works even if the
 recipient does not have GNU patch, or does not use these options.  One
 way to do this would be to implement a `diff' option to output diffs in
 time stamp order.
