This is what we currently document:
http://dev.apache.org/patches.html

We prefer that patches be submitted in unified diff format:

     diff -u file-old.c file.c

but that isn't available on all platforms. If your platform doesn't 
support unified diffs, please use a context diff instead:

     diff -C3 file-old.c file.c
