Hello!
I recently discovered that you can control the amount of context that
diff -u or -c gives you. Shortly thereafter it became very annoying
that the zsh completion sees characters (other than other option
characters) immediately following -u (or -c) as the original file name
and thus won't complete the new file once you get as far as "diff -u0
orig". The patch below makes the completion treat them the same way
the option handling in diff does.
This leaves the completion still thinking A is the original file name
if you type for instance "diff -wA orig" whereas diff complains that A
is an invalid option, but since diff will make you retype the command
anyway it's not necessarily worth fixing.
