["NAME"]
       cut-diff - show difference between 2 files with color

["SYNOPSIS"]
       cut-diff [option ...] file1 file2

["DESCRIPTION"]
       cut-diff is a diff command that uses diff feature in Cutter. It shows
       difference with color.

       It's recommended that you use a normal diff(1) when you want to use
       with patch(1) or you don't need color.

["OPTIONS"]
       --version
              cut-diff shows its own version and exits.

       -c [yes|true|no|false|auto], --color=[yes|true|no|false|auto]
              If 'yes' or 'true' is specified, cut-diff uses colorized output
              by escape sequence. If 'no' or 'false' is specified, cut-diff
              never use colorized output. If 'auto' or the option is omitted,
              cut-diff uses colorized output if available.

              The default is auto.

       -u, --unified
              cut-diff uses unified diff format.

       --context-lines=LINES
              Shows diff context around LINES.

              All lines are shown by default. When unified diff format is
              used, 3 lines are shown by default.

       --label=LABEL, -L=LABEL
              Uses LABEL as a header label. The first--label option value is
              used as file1's label and the second --label option value is
              used asfile2's label.

              Labels are the same as file names by default.
