Hi,

Emacs's diff-mode redefines M-q, which I normally use for
fill-paragraph (the standard binding), since:

  revision 1.54
  date: 2004-02-02 22:08:37 +0100;  author: uid69204;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 
-1;
  Bind q to `quit-window'.

I often use diff-mode to edit patches, (created by Git with git
send-email --anotate) and add comments to them before I send them by
email, and therefore fill my paragraphs (like in any other emails).
Having M-q rebound to quit-window there is harmfull. It should
definitely not be the default.

This is especially frustrating since the code says:

(easy-mmode-defmap diff-mode-shared-map
    [...]
    ;; Standard M-a is useful, so don't change M-A.
    ;;("A" . diff-ediff-patch)
    ;; Standard M-r is useful, so don't change M-r or M-R.
    ;;("r" . diff-restrict-view)
    ;;("R" . diff-reverse-direction)
    ("q" . quit-window))

so, some care has been taken not to override M-A, M-r and M-R, but M-q
still is.

Thanks,

It appears to fix it, indeed.  Installed,
