+@section Submitting patches
+
+When you prepare a patch use @samp{diff -upr djgpp.old djgpp.new} or
+@samp{diff -cpr djgpp.old djgpp.new}.  The directory names
+@samp{djgpp.old} and @samp{djgpp.new} are just examples, but you should
+preferably use a descriptive name.  
+
+Similarly if you use cvs diff use @samp{cvs -z3 diff -up djgpp} or
+@samp{cvs -z3 diff -cp djgpp}.  
+
+If you have added any new files the option @samp{-N} comes in handy.
