Hey, I can't read 'diff -c'! But I'm willing to learn if you can cite some virtues :-)
I changed it to -u.
I too think -c is harder to read. Initially I made a reference to the Emacs manual and they use -c, probably because context diffs have a better chance to apply cleanly. I said -c for consistency. But then I realized that their requirements aren't quite appropriate for our simple project and removed the link.
