Xdelta(1) General Commands Manual Xdelta(1)
NAME
xdelta - Invoke Xdelta
SYNOPSIS
xdelta subcommand [ option... ] [ operand... ]
DESCRIPTION
Xdelta provides the ability to generate deltas between a pair of files and later apply those deltas. It operates similar to the diff and
patch commands, but works on binary files and does not produce a human readable output.
Xdelta has three subcommands, delta, patch, and info. Delta accepts two file versions and produces a delta, while patch accepts the origi-
nal file version and delta and produces the second version. The info command prints useful information about a delta. Each subcommand
will be detailed seperately.
Gzip processing
Attempting to compute a delta between compressed input files usually results in poor compression. This is because small differences
between the original contents causes changes in the compression of whole blocks of data. To simplify things, Xdelta implements a special
case for gzip(1) compressed files. If any version input to the delta command is recognized as having gzip compression, it will be automat-
ically decompressed into a temporary location prior to comparison. This temporary location is either the value of the TMPDIR environment
variable, if set, otherwise "/tmp".
The Xdelta patch header contains a flag indicating that the reconstructed version should be recompressed after applying the patch. In gen-
eral, this allows Xdelta to operate transparently on gzip compressed inputs.
There is one potential problem when automatically processing gzip compressed files, which is that the recompressed content does not always
match byte-for-byte with the original compressed content. The uncompressed content still matches, but if there is an external integrity
check such as cryptographic signature verification, it may fail. To prevent this from happening, the --pristine option disables automatic
gzip processing.
MD5 integrity check
By default, Xdelta always verifies the MD5 checksum of the files it reconstructs. This prevents you from supplying an incorrect input dur-
ing patch, which would result in corrupt output. Because of this feature, you can feel confident that patch has produced valid results.
The --noverify option disables MD5 verification, but this is only recommended for performance testing.
Compressed patch format
Xdelta uses a fairly simple encoding for its delta, then applies zlib compression to the result. You should not have to post-compress an
Xdelta delta.
Delta
The delta subcommand has the following synopsis:
xdelta delta [ option... ] fromfile tofile patchout
Computes a delta from fromfile to tofile and writes it to patchout
Patch
The patch subcommand has the following synopsis:
xdelta patch [ option... ] patchin [ fromfile [ tofile ]]
Applies patchin to fromfile and produces a reconstructed version of tofile.
If fromfile was omitted, Xdelta attempts to use the original fromfile name, which is stored in the delta. The from file must be identical
to the one used to create the delta. If its length or MD5 checksum differs, patch will abort with an error message.
If tofile was omitted, Xdelta attempts to use the original tofile name, which is also stored in the delta. If the original tofile name
already exists, a unique filename extension will be added to avoid destroying any existing data.
Info
The info subcommand has the following synopsis:
xdelta info patchinfo
Prints information about patchinfo and the version it reconstructs, including file names, lengths, and MD5 checksums.
Options
-0..9 Set the zlib compression level. Zero indicates no compression. Nine indicates maximum compression.
-h, --help
Print a short help message and exit.
-q, --quiet
Quiet. Surpresses several warning messages.
-v, --version
Print the Xdelta version number and exit.
-V, --verbose
Verbose. Prints a bit of extra information.
-n, --noverify
No verify. Turns off MD5 checksum verification of the input and output files.
-m=SIZE, --maxmem=SIZE
Set an upper bound on the size of an in-memory page cache. For example, --maxmem=32M will use a 32 megabyte page cache.
-s=BLOCK_SIZE
Set the block size, unless it was hard coded (20% speed improvement). Should be a power of 2.
-p, --pristine
Disable the automatic decompression of gzipped inputs, to prevent unexpected differences in the re-compressed content.
RETURN VALUES
The delta command exits with status 0 to indicate that no differences were found, with status 1 to indicate that some differences were
found, and with status 2 to indicate an error of some kind. The patch and info commands exit with status 0 on success and 2 on failure.
