Tim clearly wants us to use 'diff -Naur'.  The -N option to diff
means that it will include new files in the patch.

Another possibility is to artificially create an empty file in
the old tree (may be easier than cleaning trash files in the new
tree).

What is preferred depends on persons.  For me, a single file +
location is good enough, for multiple files patch is preferred.
