Translating diff.texi into Polish I have found following
bugs:

1. Not updated diff wersion:
> This is Edition 1.3, for @code{diff} 2.5 [...]
and then, some lines later:
> This is Edition 1.2, for @code{diff} 2.4 [...]

2. Doubled word 'the':

> This file documents the the GNU
(above line is present twice)

> new group format is same as the the changed group

> number of lines in the group in the the

> stands for the the contents of the line
(twice)

> when using the the @samp{-D @var{name}}

> Ignore any differences in the the first @var{bytes}

> to transform the the directory subtree

Doubled "and":

> @samp{w} and and @samp{q} commands that save the changes

Trailing  "s" added to "ensure":

> It can also maintain a @code{patchlevel.h} file to ensures
> that your correspondents apply diffs in the proper order.

Parts of the manual describing 'patch' seem to me to be
obsolete:
> Because Larry Wall has not released a new version of
> @code{patch} since mid 1988 and the GNU version of
> @code{patch} has been changed since then
Is someone going to update it?
