How to make patches that involve multiple files and adding new files

several more than one files directories together single patch roll Drupal

making multiple file patches:

when adding new files, I always used diff -urpN instead of just diff -urp, so that new files are also rolled inside the patch. But please double-check, that no other files got rolled-in accidentally (such as automated back-up files made by some text editors and such).
