NAME
       diffindex-rred - Restricted restricted ed

SYNOPSIS
       diffindex-rred diff1 ...

DESCRIPTION
       diffindex-rred  is  a  command line tool for applying diff --ed style patches, as used in APT's diff/Index format. It can efficiently apply
       several patches in one run and does not need to read the whole source file into memory.

       The source file is taken from stdin. The patched file is written to stdout. Compressed patch files are decompressed automatically  if  they
       have the proper .gz, .bz2, or .lzo extension.

       diffindex-rred is used by diffindex-download.
