in thread diff command

I do not understand what this means. 0a1,4 means

"a" denotes an addition. "d" denotes a deletion. The numbers on the left form a range of line numbers in file1. The numbers on the right form a range of line numbers in file2.

and how to make the output files identical

Some options: 

cp file1 file2

[download]
cp file2 file1

[download]
truncate -s 0 file1 file2

[download]
