* Wed Feb 05 2025 Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- diffutils 3.11:
* quote file names more consistently in diagnostics
* diff now outputs more information when symbolic links differ
* diff's --ignore-case (-i) and --ignore-file-name-case options
now support multi-byte characters
* diff now supports multi-byte characters when treating white
space
* In options like --expand-tabs (-t), --ignore-space-change (-b)
and --ignore-tab-expansion (-E), diff now recognizes non-ASCII
space characters and counts columns for non-ASCII characters.
* cmp -bl no longer omits "M-" from bytes with the high bit set
in single-byte locales like en_US.iso8859-1
* cmp -i N and -n N no longer fail merely because N is enormous.
* cmp -s no longer mishandles /proc files
* diff -E no longer mishandles some input lines containing '\a',
'\b', '\f', '\r', '\v', or '\0'.
* diff -ly no longer mishandles non-ASCII input.
* diff - A/B now works correctly when standard input is a
directory, by reading a file named B in that directory.
* diff no longer suffers from race conditions in some cases when
comparing files in a mutating file system

stdout, or stderr are closed
* cmp, diff and sdiff no longer treat negative command-line
option-arguments as if they were large positive numbers
