--histogram::
Generate a diff using the "histogram diff" algorithm.
+--anchored=<text>::
+ Generate a diff using the "anchored diff" algorithm.
++
+This option may be specified more than once.
++
+If a line exists in both the source and destination, exists only once,
+and starts with this text, this algorithm attempts to prevent it from
+appearing as a deletion or addition in the output. It uses the "patience
+diff" algorithm internally.

--diff-algorithm={patience|minimal|histogram|myers}::
Choose a diff algorithm. The variants are as follows:

Also, these upper-case letters can be downcased to exclude. E.g.
`--diff-filter=ad` excludes added and deleted paths.
++
+Note that not all diffs can feature all types. For instance, diffs
+from the index to the working tree can never have Added entries
+(because the set of paths included in the diff is limited by what is in
+the index). Similarly, copied and renamed entries cannot appear if
+detection for those types is disabled.
