"Major mode for viewing/editing context diffs.
Supports unified and context diffs as well as (to a lesser extent)
normal diffs.
-When the buffer is read-only, the ESC prefix is not necessary."
+When the buffer is read-only, the ESC prefix is not necessary.
+IF you edit the buffer manually, diff-mode will try to update the hunk
+headers for you on-the-fly.
+
+You can also switch between context diff and unified diff with \\[diff-context->unified],
+or vice versa with \\[diff-unified->context] and you can also revert the direction of
+a diff with \\[diff-reverse-direction]."
