[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi,

Both 'diff --help' and 'man diff' report wrong help message for -q option :

*  -q, --brief                   report only when files differ*


info diff reports the correct help message :

*`-q'*
*`--brief'*
*     Report only whether the files differ, not the details of the*
*     differences.  *Note Brief::.*

Please help update
