For recursive diff, it would be useful to have an option to sort the files in timestamp order to generate patches. I suspect that users who apply patches do not always use the -Z patch option to avoid time-dependency problems with "make". It seems that sorting the files by time in a patch file would make the -Z option useless, as I suggested here:
