Reading them anywhere there is a difference. Whether that difference is
bad is a matter of preference. My complaint is you are asking me to do
additional work to regenerate a patch set, I have 16 inter-related
patches and so regenerating the patch set is non-trivial, especially
when its easy enough to read the context diffs I sent. Ok next time I
regenerate a patch for you it'll be unified, but this is a trivial
reason to not even look at the code I sent..
