+%description
+The diff command compares files line by line.  Diffstat reads the
+output of the diff command and displays a histogram of the insertions,
+deletions and modifications in each file.  Diffstat is commonly used
+to provide a summary of the changes in large, complex patch files.
+
+Install diffstat if you need a program which provides a summary of the
+diff command's output.  You'll need to also install diffutils.
