I'd like to submit a few updates to some documentation. I've never done this before, so I'm not sure how to call diff to get an acceptable patch.

Do the name names of my pristine and tweaked folders make any difference?

I have looked at a few PATCH emails and think that this is the command I should use: diff -Nru oldfolder newfolder

Is that acceptable, or should I use something else?
