Here is what I came up with and applied.

    Documentation/diff-options.txt: unify options
    
    Instead of listing short option (e.g. "-U<n>") as a shorthand for its
    longer counterpart (e.g. "--unified=<n>"), list the synonyms together.  It
    saves one indirection to find what the reader wants.
