That's when the Copyright notices were updated for all the files, to include 2011, because a new year has begun.

If every file has its first line or two changed, the diff of 6MB is normal. > Unfortunately the bzr diff output does not contain any details about > what revisions was diffed. (Is not that a big omitting?) "bzr diff" always diffs against the current version by default, which you can see with "bzr revno". If you give non-default -rREVNO arguments to "bzr diff", then presumably you already know the revisions yourself.
